Topic:

Quebec is considering outlawing the sale of caffeinated ‘energy’ drinks to persons under 16. This proposed policy is motivated by concerns that these drinks are unsafe for children and teenagers and could even lead to death.

Is the proposed ban ethically defensible? If so, why? If not, why not? What would be the most ethically defensible means of introducing a ban or some other policy to address the health impacts of energy drinks on young persons? Consider the perspectives and interests of children/teens, parents, energy drink makers, and the general public when answering these questions.
