Years ago I had to get braces on my teeth. Yes, even at an adult stage people called me metal mouth and a few other words. Like always I ignored them.
When they were first put on, the teeth really hurt to the point I couldn't chew food. Mashed potatoes were the best. I didn't have to chew, just swallow. The one night I made the kids hot dogs. They smelled so good. You guessed it, I pureed the hot dogs. The kids stared at my plate in disbelief. What is it? When I said hot dog they all laughed. When I scooped it up they laughed even harder. For about a week I was like this. Then came summer and sweet corn. Who doesn't like fresh sweet corn on the cob. I know I can't eat it off the cob, so I cut it off the cob and ate it. I did have a problem with some foods but figured out most. So just remember at any age braces are a challenge but there is a way around them!.....
