Four Eyes Or Trendy?
Why Teens And Tweens Don't Like Glasses
Advice Seeker: Dear April,
My 14-year-old just found out she needs glasses and she's mortified! She is begging me to let her get contacts instead. I'm trying to tell her that glasses are actually really cool; I know a lot of people who are getting them with non-prescription lenses just beccause they want glasses so badly. Why is this age group so against glasses while it seems like they're so trendy among everyone out of their teen years? My daughter is certainly interested in getting the most trendy, expensive sunglasses, just not regular glasses.
Sincerely,
No Glasses for This Girl

Dear No Glasses for This Girl,
You're absolutely right in that teens and tweens just aren't as into glasses as older generations are. But they do actually have very good reasons for the preferences.
