A: about 3/4 of kids in the US get braces sooner or later. you may see they're dorky or ugly, but i say they're beautiful. don't be embarrassed or un-confident because of them. flaunt 'em! get pretty colors, brush your teeth a lot (food gets stuck!), and smile. trust me, you will be so happy, in the end, with the results! you'll really wanna smile!

Q: I wear glasses. They're really annoying and they make me look geeky. I hate them! What should I do?

A: tons of people get glasses. they're not ugly or geeky, they're something you need. without them , you cannot see! so wear them!! if anyone is making fun of you, it's not right. i'm sure they would want to be made fun of if they had them! just come up with something to say or ignore it. remember, you can always get contacts. personally, i think they are very attarcative. they make the person look more intelligent and elegant! be proud of your glasses!
