Who says:
"Grace, I hope that you can help me. At school, a TON of people just
got braces. Even my little sister has some. Can you help me with what to
do? Should I beg my mom for braces or what? I'm really confused."
Kathy Wynway, Age 11 (Tulsa, Oklahoma)
Dear Kathy,
I completely understand the feeling of wanting
to have braces. I am surrounded by about three or four
people with braces. Although that may not seem
like many to what your school has, even the littlest things might make
you want to fit in. When your little sister has braces, it for sure must be even more
difficult. The first thing I want to tell you, even though I am sure a lot
of people have is that you are beautiful just the way you are (like Bruno Mars says)
You should always be confident in how you look like, and that is coming
from someone who isn't all that goregeous and is pretty shy. You should
think about what things you have that not everyone has in them or on them.
You might have adorable freckles, wear glasses that have tweety-bird on the sides or
you can do a running roundoff. Write down all the things you have that many other people
don't. Don't brag about what you can do, but be proud of it. Think about all the candy
you can eat and not everyone else with braces can. If you do end up getting braces,
it won't be the end of the world and you will enjoy it just as much as
someone without braces would.
Enjoy school!

"I need a suggestion from you on how to wake up quicker.
I am always late to school and I don't know how to make
myself quicker. Can you help?"
Lilianna Jefferson, Age 13 (Garden City, Kansas)
Dear Lilianna,
I am someone who usually struggle to get up,
but I have very recently been able to get up quicker.
Here are some tips.
1. Make sure any siblings or family members are up so they aren't the reason you are late, just don't blow a siren in their ears or pour water on them because they will definitely not be happy when they do wake up.
2. Set your alarm the night before for at least an hour and a half or later depending on when your school starts and how far you have to go to get to school, get up and don't hit snooze no matter how much you want to. If you need to, start a reward system. Whether that be get ice-cream or a cookie at lunch or ask your mom if you can stay up twenty minutes later that night than usual, try to keep on rewarding yourself until it becomes almost consistent.
3. Set out your clothes the night before so you don't have to get them in the morning. If you wear that, set it out in a safe place also.
4. Check the tires for flats if possible and make sure you have the keys to the car the night before.
5. Don't stay up too late the night before.
6. Take a shower the night before if possible.
Thanks Guys Bye,
Grace
