Can children drink decaffeinated coffee

Answer 1

I don't know about how it would affect a child's health, however, I wouldn't give a child coffee due to the caffeine. If you do, however, I would suggest to put milk in it so it would contain less caffeine. That's why they call coffee with milk, kids coffee.

Answer 2

That is dependent upon what you define as safe.

I will assume you are referring to the affects of caffeine on a growing child. Decaf coffee does not contain no caffeine, as the process by which the caffeine is removed from coffee is not perfect. As such there will be some consumption of caffeine when you drink decaf, though this is greatly less than regular coffee.

As such, if you have a highly caffeine-sensitive child, most likely not. Else, it should be fine. After all, cola drinks (such as coke) contain caffeine, and in much higher quantities than in decaf.

Also, it is probably better for an 11-year old to be drinking decaf as opposed to normal coffee, for the fact that there will be less caffeine in decaf than in normal coffee.
