Definitely wouldn’t be something I would encourage. Kids don’t need caffeine. I wouldn’t be leaving the mug out.

its not something I am comfortable for my children.

I would hold off as long as possible. As it is easy to get addicted to.

Well, it’s not going to kill them but it’s certainly a habit I’d discourage. Coffee isn’t good for kids. Don’t leave your cup in reach.

I would be definitely keeping it out of the little ones reach. Otherwise the next mug they reach for May be full with hot coffee

I’d be concerned if your little one grabs a hot cup of tea or coffee and burns himself/herself.

I don’t think this will hurt your child, but I would not leave my cup lying around.

Might have to rinse out your mug straight after you finish

I would not give my child coffee,and rarely does she drink coke,sometimes a frozen coke at maccas,they contain caffeine,kids don’t need to become addicted.

Once in a blue moon should be okay!

I don’t think kids should have coffee at all. Perhaps put your cup up higher.

Can’t beleive kids like it lol! I even can’t stand the taste!

It’s bad for adults … so are energy drinks.

My daughter does every now and again, aged eight. A milky one.

Yes it is bad, children are sneaky! Try keep it out of her reach one day she might severely burn herself.

I don’t think it will do any harm if it is only a small amount occasionally but would not be encouraging it. You are the one that has to deal with a little one with caffeine.

This is very very bad! Especially the end but which is the strongest. Once finished drinking wash it up straight away!

Sorry coffee is not good for any child

things do happen with little kids and its easy to forget things like that but i really dont think its good for them at all there is a reason kids are not supposed to drink coffee red bulls etc 🙂

I think coffee or caffeine of any sort should be encouraged for children however this seems to be a genuine phase that they just want your cup – make sure you put it up high and maybe grab your child a similar cup and put water in it that they can feel like they are drinking coffee like mummy. I tell my children coffee (and my husbands alcohol) are adult drinks and will make them feel sick and they have learnt not to ask for it.
