Energy drinks are taking the world by storm, especially in the 12-17 year-old market. But are you certain that your child is drinking an energy drink, and not one of the new "alcopops?" Do you even know what an alcopop is?

Picture the scene:  you take your daughter to the mall and she does not want to walk too close to you, or you drop off your son at practice and he leaps out of the car practically before it’s come to a stop.
 You love your kids and want what is best for them, but sometimes it can be hard to demonstrate how much you love them, particularly as they grow up and become more independent.
