Why do some products state, “Not recommended for children over 12 years of age”?
- aren’t people over 12 years of age, not children?

You are a child until you hit the age of consent in your respective country.
Medicine has different effects on children than it does on adults and clone medicine can cause damage to someone whose mind and/or body are still in the growth process. They might interfere with development.
The dose of medicine or some of the ingredients may not be effective for adults.
“Not recommended for children over 12 years of age”
That could be a satirical comment made about something like Spongeblob Squidpants, in which case they’d be implying that people who watch such shows (including me) are children at heart, even if they’re 65.
In that sense, some of us will always be children in some ways.
It is to late to edit, of course, I read the question wrong. @Judi sulks like a loser.
Uh. No? Anyone under age 18 (in the US, at least) is a child. Are you under the impression that 13 year old kids are adults??
Uh. No? I obviously know how old you have to be to be an adult.
Then please explain your question, since what you wrote completely contradicts that:
“aren’t people over 12 years of age, not children?”
Notice the comma. “Aren’t PEOPLE over 12 years of age?” Basically.
Your question continues to make no sense.
PEOPLE includes everyone, regardless of age. PEOPLE includes children and adults.
CHILD is anyone from birth through age 18.
ADULT is anyone age 18 or older.
I’m sure you think you’re making sense, but I assure you, you are not.
The product is recommended for children aged birth through 12. It is not recommended for children aged 13 through 17. It is not recommended for adults. What is confusing you about this?
If you don’t think it does, then stop trying to answer it. Just a simple question and I seem to have gotten the answer I need even BEFORE you came.
Oh by the way, do you like making people feel stupid?
Ma’am, if my attempts to get you to write coherently are making you feel stupid, that’s your concern, not mine.
I’m not trying to answer it, because, as I’ve pointed out, it’s nonsensical as written. I’m trying to get you to write it coherently. Which you still have yet to do.
No, I do not have yet to do, I already have wrote it as I feel it should be written. And I already have my answer, so I don’t need you to try, or get me to write it ‘coherently.’ Thankyou for your help.
So you’re saying that someone here not only deciphered your unintelligible writings, but gave you the answer you’re looking for, and you didn’t even have the decency to reply back thanking them? I’m sure whoever it was that gave you the answer you wanted would like to know it was appreciated.
Do you automatically assume that I got the answer from here? I might have possibly asked somebody else that I personally know, and got an answer that way.
@MrItty , Please stop abusing a newbie. People get better from being on this forum, not because they were harassed and bullied, but because they were gently led by the mods and through PM’s. Public humiliation rarely works.
Oh my… If you think a 13 year old is an adult, you’ve probably never spoken to one.
I don’t even think of 18 year olds as adults.
