To be secretly excited about ds needing glasses?

[ilovemyhens]

I know it's daft, but I can't help it. He looks so cute and intellectual

Or

Do glasses on a 12 year old spell lots of unknown disasters that I haven't even thought of yet?

We pick 'em up this morning

Mmmmmmm, well as someone who's always worn glasses and considers them a real pain in the bum yes I think YABU

Hopefully though he's as excited as you and won't find them as much a pain as I do. But I'm very short sighted and its just difficult for stuff like swimming, skiing, etc. I can't wear sunglasses.

He's been asking for them for years. We all wear glasses. I can't manage without them either.

I hope he doesn't sit on them like I did when I was his age.
