I’ve just started wearing braces, but I hate them. I don‘t see any advantage in wearing them. My friends all laugh at me and say bad things about me. I feel embarrassed when I smile or open my mouth. The braces hurt my teeth, and it's difficult for me to eat. I feel it was a mistake for my mother to make me wear these ugly braces. What do you suggest?
