    I thought more explanation might be needed so here it is.

    The ones with the rounded hooks are too small for his head. He aint got a big head, they just don't fit.

    He just pulls them off because of his disability so hence the need for some sort of attachment.

    Apparently superglue and nails are off limits. Political correctness gone mad.

    Hello :o

    I've been wearing glasses since i was little, i remember being in maybe the second class in primary school and going to get my eyes tested at the opticians after getting a brief check at school. Luckily quite a few others in my class already, or soon, wore glasses so i didnt feel any different for wearing them :o

    My mom took me to a small place in our home town, who took plenty of time with me and fixed them whenever i broke them (whoops!).

    I still have to wear them now, now nearly 23, but can afford nicer frames now-back then mine werent too bad but you know what its like when you're little and your mom picks out what she thinks is cute lol.

    Keely.

    ps-i like boots opticians now-i get points too lol.
