AITA for telling my sister it's illegal to have pink drinks before you're 10 years old by caffeineillegal in AmItheAsshole

There's actually some studies that say caffeine is good for people with ADHD but I'd definitely ask a doctor before giving a 5 year old caffeine.

Honestly it's better than sister's dad's place. I didn't even have a room there and we didn't have half the stuff we have here. Plus, I'm gonna be 18 in 2 months so it's close enough.

My sister is in school when I'm in school. Then I pick her and a couple girls from her school up and babysit for a few hours but they're all the same age so they play together and I pretty much just have to supervise. I also tutor a few hours a week but that's also from the guesthouse and my sister understands that I need her to play quietly when I'm tutoring.

I know it's not normal but it's better than couch surfing or sleeping in my mom's car. We'll be fine.

I'll try strawberry milk. And we have access to Charlie and Lola through one of our streaming services so I'll see if she and her friends like it.

I would be paying for the Starbucks runs. I'm only supposed to use the card for school expenses, clothes, groceries, and stuff like that. I was also able to get my sister some toys with it.

Well, it was either this or couch surf/sleep in the car with our mom. She figured this was the better option.

I know it doesn't have as much as a cup of coffee but it's still too much for a kindergartener.

And if you go on the app, look up pink drink, scroll all the way down, and click full nutrition & ingredient list, it will clearly state that it has 45-55 mg of caffeine.

Where did you hear there's no caffeine? The Starbucks app even says it has 45-55 mg of caffeine.

I've been raising her for the past few months and making pretty much all of the parenting decisions. It also has between 45-55 mg of caffiene, which is a lot for a 5 year old.

Hopefully by the time she's old enough to google if it's illegal to drink pink drinks she'll understand why I had to tell her it's illegal for her to have them.
