🤔 16?

Coffee feels like an adult right of passage. So my thoughts are 18ish or about the time on starts college or enters the workforce.

Freshman year. Finals.

Never. Life is better without it.

Coffee is for bitches

Unpopular Fact: Coffee is a habit forming stimulant. Millions of Americans are addicted to coffee to the point where they have withdrawals if they don't drink it daily.

One of my earliest memories is sipping coffee from my mom’s cup, sweetened with a liberal dose of sugar, while I was on her lap.

College

GM ☕ 🤔

Mid teens as long as it's somewhat limited.

I was drinking it pretty regularly by high school and I turned out OK.

I try to avoid stimulants for normal day to day living. I use some when dragging and planning for above average activity. I would try and teach children about importance of eating healthy, sleeping consistently, and give them awareness of dependency on chemicals. But some probably call me a weirdo.

I’m trying to avoid coffee Monday - Friday. And only drink on days I’m not going to do mental work.

Opposite to most people but I think long term healthier

I try to do the same. Saving caffeine for personal life effort or trying to keep up with kids.

13 I suppose Jimmy

Mid high school I would say

Never. Bunch of degenerate drug addicts

One of the worst drugs out there.

If you were being literal & live in America, never ever start, ever.

Otherwise, 20+ is developmentally a good age **to be introduced to caffeine**

My 13 year old is starting to steal sips from my cup… so I figured… Why not see how she likes a stiff cup of coffee. She managed to drink half and I drank the rest. Now I’m just waiting to see when she asks me for another cup. 😅

College age

Let a 9 year old try it black. The market will speak for itself.

For the rare chid, Don’t let them have a regular habit.

Growing up in the south, I used to drink sweet tea by the gallons as a kid. I had Way more caffeine by quantity than one would get from a cup of coffee.

Kids love cold coffee.

I started at 7 😂

With breast milk at birth, get them kids up and at it already.

Yerba mate 🧉 is better

If the question assumes coffee is inappropriate at certain ages, that suggests we should question whether coffee consumption is advisable at any age.

If I could go back I would have never started.

This includes the joy I get from a good cup.

In dog years?

Jimmy, replace "coffee" with "alcohol" and you probably already have your answer

…. Not at all… but if you have to then look out to get your beans for sats⚡️

When you’re ready, you’ll know

Ask me after hyper bitcoinization.

It should be regulated, so when mature enough to work and pay for the coffee

I meant it SHOULD NOT be regulated….

20. And for all other things, a person should be considered an adult.

high school age

14 🤷‍♂️

I've been drinking coffee for a long time (+/- 4 years old). ☕
