Thank you for being honest to your patients.
Wearing a retainer for the rest of my life while I sleep was not something I agreed to when I was a middle schooler. I'd rather have crooked teeth. And I know it's hard to get a kid to think about all the consequences, but I would have told my parents to save their money and a bunch of pain in my ass to not have braces if I knew that was the future.
