Do you think there should be an age restriction on energy drinks?

[Smithy]

Im not talking 18 obviously but maybe 13/14, I really think there should be, my cousin's 8 and he buys it all the time and it just sends him ridiculously OTT, if i'm ever with him, I take it off of him, but at work kids the same age buy it and you can't help but think that that's not what the drinks are for :conf2:

there a age on the drinks at my shops which is 16 age

[Me. I Am Salman]

Yes because my friend had loads in one day and his legs ended up aching :s

[King Gizzard]

I thought there was kind of an age restriction on them, must just never get implemented

If there is it's not a law :/

[Jords]

I remember when I was younger thinking I was cool when I drank them lol

[Me. I Am Salman]

They're so overrated, don't get why people love them.

[Jords]

Theyre ideal with vodka on nights out :laugh:

Yes I do actually.. My daughter is 9 and I would never ever let her have red bull.

She was asking me about it the other day and got told she could try it when she's 15!

After drinking Red Bull, my 9 year old cousin jumped off the garden shed saying he had wings and broke his nose. Stupid ****er is so idiotic.

But in general, under 12s should be careful.

My son feels really ill after drinking them so he doesn't get them anymore he only did to sass me, little bast (he's 16)
But yeah I hate 'energy' and 'sports' drinks, just full of sugar and caffeine. :yuk:

[Josy]

Probably should be yes.

I actually hate energy drinks

[Z]

Yeah definitely, they're mental

This just reminded me of the time a woman working in Co-op refused to let me buy FHM because it was "pornography" even though I was 18 and it's not porn :laugh2: I wasn't that bothered but wtf

[MTVN]

Not sure how you'd enforce it really, 13/14 year olds aren't really going to be carrying ID or anything like that

A few shops I've seen have had a minimum age of 14 for energy drinks sign up, but that's just an unofficial thing really

[Ninastar]

My sister couldn't buy an energy drink and she was 15 at the time

I thought it was a law? If not, it should be

[Kizzy]

Probably should be yes.

I actually hate energy drinks

Me too if I see toddlers with lucozade sport or something I want to knock it out of their hand :joker:
