The issue of kids drinking caffeine isn’t only in America it is all over the world. “Germany has tracked energy drink-related incidents since 2002. Reported outcomes include liver damage, kidney failure, respiratory disorders, agitation, seizures, psychotic conditions, rhabdomyolysis, tachycardia, cardiac dysrhythmias, hypertension, heart failure, and death.” (Seifert et al.) by banning the sale of energy drinks to children we can lower the chances of them getting any of the sicknesses above. Kids that drink large amounts of energy drink are slowly killing themselves. The high amounts of caffeine can cause cardiovascular problems at a young age. “Recently, Berger and Alford reported on the cardiac arrest of a healthy 28-year-old man after consuming seven to eight cans of a caffeinated ‘energy drink’” (Wolk, Ganetsky, and Babu). 
If a cardiac arrest can happen to a fully-grown healthy man than imagine what it can do to teenagers who are still growing. This goes on to show that energy drinks should not be sold to anyone sixteen and younger. This is just how energy drinks affect children and adolescents physical.
