Answers:

This is a decision that your mom and your Doctor make together for you. I have seen people of all ages, from babies to olde old folks get contacts for one reason or another. The biggest consideration is if your are responsible enough to keep the hygiene up. If you brush your teeth and hair and take showers and keep your own self clean on a daily basis without being told you most likely will keep the contacts in a healthy state. If you do not, you most likely won't. Sports is a good reason to use them, especially if you are having issues seeing. talk to your mom about it and your eye doctor and see what they think together. It is also acost issue because the contacts are more expensive and you still need updadted glasses to see with when you are not wearing your contacts.
