Facebook Helps 4 Year Old Learn to Love His New Glasses

When 4 year old Noah Fisher found out he needed glasses, one of his first thoughts was that people would laugh at him.  I know. That broke our hearts, too. But wait! It gets better! Noah’s mom, Lindsey Fisher, set up a page on Facebook called “Glasses for Noah” asking friends and family members to submit pictures of themselves wearing spectacles to ease the preschooler’s fears .  The response was awesomely overwhelming. Facebook Helps A 4 Year Old Love His Glasses Lindsey watched as one after another people liked the page. Then picture after picture of people wearing glasses began to pour in. As long as Lindsey continues to get new photos on the page, she’ll share them with her son. Some Facebook users submitted pictures of superheroes in spectacles to show Noah that even the Man of Steel needs a little help with his X-ray vision! While Lindsey Fisher’s goal  was to help Noah feel comfortable in his glasses, the page remains active on Facebook and can now be used as a tool by other parents who find themselves in a similar position.  Hooray for good people in the world!
