I drink so many caffeinated beverages in a day it's a wonder I'm not manic all the time. But then I'm an old bird who's been doing it since forever, not a young teen-aged girl whose brain is still developing.

If the girl is going to have caffeine, it's better if she actually drinks coffee, as opposed to taking caffeine pills.....those are unnatural synthetic products and offer no health benefits like coffee does.
