Underage kids will still drink them, they will just pay inflated prices for them from 3rd parties.

People that are old enough to buy them legally will buy up packs of them and then sell them to kids who cannot legally buy them.

Same thing happens here in the US with alcohol and cigs.

That's a good thing, that's less total caffeine they ingest. Which is the entire point. To reduce easy access to high dose caffeine. The kids could just huff coffee if they really wanted, no solution needs to be perfect to have an effect.

I'm not saying it's bad or good, I'm just saying that Poland will need to do more than just restrict sales to minors if they want to have long term success with this.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
