My DS(6yo) has worn glasses in class for about a year, since starting back to school he has lost one pair, and is refusing to wear an old pair(same prescription just a bit scratch).He says he looks like a nerd!!
It's not a strong prescription and he only needs to wear them in class, but DH thinks, that if he is that upset about wearing them he should not be made to. I on the other hand,think that if an optician has said he needs glasses then he should wear them, I'm afraid his school work may suffer if he doesn't.
His teacher does make sure he wears them in class, but DH just thinks I'm being a horrible mother and we should tell her he doesn't need them,we had quite an argument about it last night!!
