Minors Deserve A Say - Tumblr Posts

Vent below the cut

So I got pressured to try braces cuz i have a pair of protruding teeth, the pair between the incisors and canines. I always thought it looked rlly cool. My friends did too.

But anyway I tried braces cuz my orthodontist said the protruding "fangs" could cause issues later in life.

First day: braces hurt. I can't eat for a whole day.

Day 2: my front teeth are angling back into my mouth to the point where it's hard to speak properly. By now I can at least have soup.

Day 3: my front teeth are spreading apart slightly. My voice sounds weird now. My protruding pair of teeth aren't even starting to align. That defeats the whole point. I fucking hate this. I may be a minor, but I deserve bodily autonomy.
