This is a parents problem, not a substance problem... If a kid is so stupid as to do that then it was the fault of the parent for not instilling common sense.

Kids in America are spoiled as fuck these days. My nephew who is 10 has a fucking iPhone 5 and iPad. Dumb asd parents give whatever their ungrateful piece of shit kids want.

Another thing is kids are too fucking brain dead to read and research the god damn label. Maybe if you know what you're consuming you wouldnt have health problems now would you, mother fucking pussy bitch. I hate teenagers so much.

They are "kids", you should direct your hate toward the bad parenting. Also, don't forget you were a teenager once

My thoughts exactly. Whatever happened to dipping into the parents liquor cabinet (and replacing some of it with water of course) or hanging outside the grocery store and finding the right person to buy you beer and smokes. Teenagers these days....

It's a lot less dangerous than many of the things we consume every day. Calling it "poison" is a bit abusive.


Like what would you consider more dangerous, now i am intrested.


Coffee

BAM OWNED!

Clearly poison for the elderly.

It's a generation where they have been repeatedly subjected to the fact that drugs and alcohol have negative consequences for your health and your life in general, but they still want to have the social acceptance that comes with the two.

Of course there's plenty of kids who still do hard drugs and liquor.

Where on earth do they have energy drink that cheaper than regular soda? I've gone to 3,4 countries and no matter it's local or international brand energy drink, they're all way more expensive than regular soda.

Please stop the bullshit, it's not as if you are 60, and else if you are 60, it's not as if that statement had any merit anyway.

Boy, back in my day, we walked fifteen miles through the snow, uphill, to drink dirt. And it wasn't energized or alcoholized or any of that fancy technology dirt you kids all drink nowadays. And we appreciated it, goddammit!

<spits his chewing tobacco into the nearby spittoon>

ka-TING!

On topic: Kids don't necessarily understand the health problems that occur from guzzling multiple energy drinks. So even though they're not getting drunk off these non-alcoholic beverages, there are still potential issues. That's not to say energy drinks should be banned, but parents should be paying attention to what their kids are eating and drinking.

Energy drinks cheeper than regular soda/beer, where !?
Here a monster/red bull is about 2-3$ ( per 500 ml ), you can get 2L of Soda with about 2$ and 2L of beer for as cheep as 1.2- 1.4$ with normal beer that doesn't taste like a piece of shit at around 1.8$ to 3$ if you want to buy 2L bottles. Small 500 bottle prices are not that advantageous but still under 1$ for every soda/beer that is not "very fancy".
Edit: Didn't realized it was "knock off" brands, still I never heard of knock of brands here that are cheeper than soda, most of them are still 10-40% more expensive than soda/beer.
A good strategy means leaving your opponent room to make mistakes

Can get one from less.

Most energy drinks are regulated as dietary supplements instead of soda, so they have extremely lax restrictions on what they can include (most notably with regard to sugar and caffeine). Monster, for instance, contains about 5x the amount of caffeine that Coke does (and is significantly above the maximum for a soft drink).

I did not know that. I've been chugging down a few Monsters almost every other day for the past month because of all the work I had. ><"

A gigantic fucking amount of the kids in north america are fatasses and yet THIS is what you want parents to worry about? Priorities people! Caffeine can be dealt with after you figure out how to get kids to eat healthier or grow a metabolism or something.

^This is called jumping to conclusions by the way, if you are about 150 pounds it takes about 65 cans of monster to have a lethal amount. Which by the way if you took a moment to think about, just isn't possible. You would need to have some other heart condition or be near death anyway and have that problem compounded by having a large amount of caffeine in your system.

lol at that article. thanks for the medical insight there, social worker.

this article screams of A Current Affair to me [something most of you non-australians thankfully wouldn't have been exposed to]. such a dodgy article.

when i was in high school ( graduated 2011) was when they started getting really popular. No one ever did this though I dont even see the point.
