Can children eat sugar when they are young?

My family is now a little spoiled by children. I don’t usually let children eat sugar. As long as the children take them home, they buy polysaccharides. Can children eat sugar when they are young?

    Children should not exceed 10 grams of sucrose per day before the age of three. Even after three years old, the daily sugar content should be controlled within 20 grams. Refined sugar produces "empty calories" and causes weight gain, interferes with hormones, and sends a "continue intake" signal to the brain, making people addicted. Increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease, liver disease.
