I want contacts but mom says no?
I got my eye tested last year and the guy said I need glasses but I don't really like them. I'd totally wear contact but for some reason my mom is against them and is like " oh you'll forget to take them off at night hurf shmurf" " they cost to much to buy every week" etc I'm not blind but it is not as easy to see thin writing. How can I convince her for contacts, don't say " wear glasses to prove your responsible" or anything like that

I always tell my young patients that they have to prove to their parents they can be responsible (by cleaning their room or doing chores in the house). Once your parents know that you can handle yourself with responsibilities, they won't have too much problem with contacts. You will never get contacts by nagging. Negotiate with your parents with your good behavior.
Also know that you cannot ever sleep with contacts so you do have to get a pair glasses to wear at night before you go to bed.
