There is little reason to think that whey protein supplements are harmful.
Still, keep in mind that supplements are not regulated by the FDA - there is no way to know with certainty that the product contains what it purports to contain.
It is important to talk to your doctor before starting any supplement regimen.

Is it OK for a twelve year old that plays five sports to have protein powder in his diet?
It depends on what type of diet they is on to begin with. If protein powder is being used simply as an alternate source of protein, then by all means go for it. It provides an excellent amount of protein while skipping out on high amounts of fat and sodium that other high protein foods contain. Check out a whey protein (I prefer vanilla) or even a whey protein isolate blend for even more protein and less carbs/cholesterol. However, if they are already eating large amounts of protein/food, then it wouldn't be necessary to introduce even more protein into the diet. If you were thinking along the lines of "active kid+protein+more protein=better" then there will be little no benefit to saturating the body with more protein. A healthy, balanced diet full of vegetables and fruit would be better than excess protein. Best of luck!

Can a 4 year old drink whey protein shake?
Children may take protein shakes at any age, keeping in mind that the daily requirement for protein is only about 50-75 grams. Eating more protein than the body needs at any age will not increase muscle mass, it will only add calories and be stored as fat. Also consider that many of these protein sources , while providing adequate nitrogen, if taken to the exclusion of normal meals may result in a lack of vitamins, minerals and trace elements found in "whole" foods.

Do protein shakes cause acne?
yes whey is a milk derivative and dairy products are known to cause acne in some people, myself included. I noticed one time when i went on vacation my skin cleared up a lot. When I came back it got worse. I had been avoiding dairy and eating healthy but i never thought the whey in protein could cause breakouts. I realized that that was part of the problem and my skin has been consistently better since i stopped using it. I went protein-less for close to a year until i found carnivor beef protein (look it up) i think it works wonderfully. Also avoid soy protein cause it fosters higher level of estrogen and you want to avoid playing with your hormones if you have acne. Ive seen other non-whey proteins like egg white, hemp, rice, etc but i think the beef one is the most affordable and effective
