[quote=Anonymous]When I taught middle school in a well-to-do district, Starbucks was a "thing," as was meeting up at the local non-chain coffee shop for pre-school breakfast dates. I think it's ridiculous - the expense and the unhealthiness of the drinks (they were much further along the Frappucino path than black coffee with skim milk) but like many PPs said, it made them feel grown up. Also, some of those kids probably legit needed the caffeine - I used to hear all the time about how they were up til midnight or later. For some it was extracurriculars and homework, for others texting. Regardless, most of them were up by 6:00. That's not a lot of sleep. [/quote]
