Back to school time is when parents often need to buy new eyeglasses for their children. This can be costly since children lose their glasses or even break them. My friend’s daughter wears glasses and she has to be sure to have a second pair on hand at all times. With her daughter being in school, she wants her to fit in and not be teased by other children, so the style of her eyeglasses is very important.

Children don’t want to look the same or wear glasses that look cheap. They want fashionable eyeglasses. And it just gets worse as they get older. I can’t blame them. When my older daughter had to wear glasses in high school, they became a fashion statement for her. Even at her age she lost them, sat on them and even feel asleep with them on. We went through a few pairs a year. We finally took the money out of her allowance to teach her a lesson.
