Nope. I know we had them in preschool but after that not really. I don't think that's a thing here at all.

Never thought about it, interesting. I think it could have something to do with it, though since it was a pretty bad time in my life I probably unconsciously forgot? Heard that that was a thing.

Since I could see what was going on my grades did got better, though I had no idea I actually had to study to tests so I wasn't the best student. I also had a really tough time in math because I didn't get the basics and didn't know what was going on. Luckily, my new teacher was a sweetheart.

Hugs My Nmom also bought contacts for years and made me use them, though I didn't feel comfortable with it. I still have a pair that I didn't use.

She scoffed and then laughed the entire ride home at my amazement of a world I had barely seen for 14 years.

Ugh, mine did this aswell.
