Posts: 7675 (11/17/2009 1:57 AM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts	I have to give a presentation on Thrusday for poly sci about banning minors from buying caffeinated beverages containing more then 50mg of caffeine. This is the stupid topic my group picked. We are presenting pros and cons. I'm on the side for limiting caffeine. What negative effects do you see when your kids have to much caffeine? So far my points are: blood pressure obesity tooth decay dehydration

It would seem to be straying from the topic at hand. As far as the effects of caffeine, it just caused my daughter to be a bit hyper. I would mention that addictiveness of caffeine. Even as an adult, I know I'm addicted as I get a headache when I don't have caffeine. Same thing happens in kids.
