I’ve been consuming caffeine daily since I was 5 but I never had any bad experience with it. I turned out to be fine. I discovered a few days ago that Caffeine is considered to be bad for children and Honestly I was surprised. Does the negative effects of caffeine like anxiety and sleep disturbance not apply to adults? Do people turn 18 and suddenly caffeine becomes healthy for them?

Caffeine is a drug with side affects regardless of your age. It just happens that most parents don’t want to have to deal with these side effects in their children. Simple as that. It’s also addictive and maybe not a great idea to get your kids hooked on any drugs regardless of how benign they seem.
I’ve personally quit my caffeine addiction as a teenager which was a rough time. Caffeine was something I needed to feel normal. It didn’t energize me, it kept me from feeling abnormally tired when I should have already felt awake. I basically needed it to function. Took me a little over a week of awful headaches and feeling tired and drained without being able to fall asleep to end the dependency.
