It's not the braces that suck it's your attitude that that sucks!!

Even my 6 year old does not sound off like you. Are you really 16?? Your selfishness is astonishing. You should consider yourself lucky to have parents that are willing and able to get your crooked teeth treated at all!

You should try paying for the braces yourself. Then decide if you are going to have "every single one Mystique no matter what the cost (knowing me personally am not spending a dime). I make it clear that I get the braces removed for my Senior prom and graduation."

I bet you would have a very different perspective if you were the one paying for even part your treatment!

GROW UP!!
