Well Tannner got new glasses..and he hates them - And I feel awful..did I make a mistake??


TANNER'S MOM wrote: Okay..Tan has wore glasses since he was around 18months old. Well he has always been fine with his glasses . Always needed them..never fussed.

Well he is between sizes in frames kind of. His face is to big for the small ones..and he is not quite pre teen size either. SO, I made a choice and he liked them at the shop. They are a little wider.. but they are suppose to last up to a year. And he will grow.

Well as soon as he got them.. Justin was a butthead..and said.. Tan.. you are true nerd now. Which was such a wrong thing to say.. you have no idea. I looked at Justin and I said tell him you are sorry..and I am very disappointed in you JUSTIN!

Well now.. Tanner hates those glasses. Cried for over an hour. It was awful. He really looks up to Justin. And then this! SO, he threw a fit not to wear them to school! It was ruff..

Was a way off base.. do I just not see it..

Here they are.. in the van this morning before he got out for school?>??

kimberley replied: rolleyes.gif kids can be cruel. sorry Justin said that to him. i think they are stylish and he looks handsome wub.gif

Sarah&Mackenzie replied: I like them!!

~Roo'sMama~ replied: hug.gif Poor Tanner! I'm sure Justin didn't mean to hurt his feelings but I suppose that doesn't make Tanner feel much better. sad.gif

I think they look good on him ~ if he absolutely hates them now though will the store exchange them for you?

Brothers and sisters can be cruel to each other
You did fine Mel smile.gif

TANNER'S MOM replied: Well, I worry about his glasses alot. I guess since he has wore them for so long. He is legally blind w/out them. So we have the lenses shaved and thinned..and we go for the most stylish frame we can find.. SO I guess this is my big worry. And it happened at home!

Thanks guys you are so nice.

As you can see.. my kids gave it to me w/ both barrels all weekend!

moped replied: I think they look great on him - can harldy even tell he is wearing them

luvmykids replied: He looks great! I think he's also at that age where kids want to fit in, and anybody calling him a nerd would bother him but especially his big brother who he looks up to so much. Poor Tanner, my feelings are hurt for him! hug.gif

I'm sure it will get better smile.gif

I have an example...if we were home, my 6 yr old DS would use a Zoo Pals plate. But we were visiting with my sister and nephew (he's 12) and Nathan was torn. He wanted a plate like his nephew, but he was dying to have a Zoo Pals plate.

amymom replied: I hope he will have gotten compliments at school today and it will be fine. Big brothers can be such problems sometimes and so helpful other times. Hopefully this will pass. I think they look great on Tanner.

kayla's mama replied: They look great on him. you can hardly tell that he's wearing them.

Hillbilly Housewife replied: Well...if it makes him feel ANY better, you could have NOT gotten them thinned....

my parents never got mine thinned. I'll get the couirasge to post a pic from wen I was younger later tonight... i would have LOVED to be able to chooose my own glasses. He should feel lucky.

My3LilMonkeys replied: I think he looks good in them! I wish my mom would have picked out my glasses when I was a kid. I always picked my own and looking back at the pictures I had *such* bad taste (well, still do rolling_smile.gif ).

luvbug00 replied: I like them. I like the thin frame look very handsome. smile.gif

fashionmumofboys replied: They look great on Tanner. Very stylish. thumb.gif

A&A'smommy replied: OHH Okay I think they are VERY cute they look wonderful on him!!

ediep replied: I think they look great.....not too wide at all!
