I had braces for three long years. I was a rebellious braces wearer, breaking brackets like you wouldn't believe, so I asked for it. I had rubber bands in my mouth, springs, and wires so thick my teeth looked gray.
That said, I never had anyone make fun of me, besides a few playful remarks from friends. I wore them in seventh, eighth, and ninth grade. That's middle school and the beginnings of high school here, and no one made fun of me.
Really, so many people have braces nowadays that you really won't find too many people malicious enough to make fun of you. If they do, they generally aren't the mature kind of people you want to be around anyway.
The answer above is true, but also, you don't get made fun of. It is just that you are scared. When I first got my braces I said I wouldn't let people see my teeth again, but then the people I showed at school said they looked good. So don't worry!
Tell the people who are making fun of you that it is not your fault you have to wear them.
nope! colored braces made being a brace face much more fun for me, haha :)
Normally, because of the same reasons people make fun of anyone because of their race or heritage. They do so out of ignorance and disdain.

sometimes they do because they are races
You don't. Why would you even want to? Braces are NOT fun.
because its mean
Mainly because they're jealous! :)
People will always make fun of other people who look, act, dress, or talk differently.
From my experience in braces, when you go into the orthodontist every six weeks to change your rubber bands out, you can have fun picking out pretty colors, but cleaning them can be a hassle and you will always have people pointing out pieces of food stuck in them. LOL!
Its fun because you can make things from small people to big creatures.
because itz fun
