I feel that if a 12 year old start drinking coffee they will look for that high the rest of their life. Therefore they should not start drinking coffee until the age 20+.
What do you all think?

How about never? Coffee seems to be one of those cultural norms that we accept as part of an everyday life style. In about 20 years time they will be finding out that it was the chief concern for the initiating of cancer or Alzheimer's in the body. So what is wrong with milk or chocolate milk or hot chocolate, who said you had to have a buzz every morning from caffeine? If it ain't broke why fix it? The body can do fine without caffeine so why introduce it into your life if it is not required to do so?

making a child drink coffee at the age of only 20 is somewhat unreal.... when that child reaches the age of 16 he will be able to make up his own mind about coffee. a child will only get a high from coffee by drinking it more then once a day. it is therefor sensible to give your child just one small teacup of coffee in the morning to make him used to it. any child deprived of anything will overuse it as soon as his parents are not around.

I'm not 20, and I'm allowed to have a cup of coffee..., but it's not like I drink it every day, though! There's alot more ways to make you stay awake than caffeine, you know..., and I don't have asthma...
