What is your opinion on braces?

I'm getting them anyways, so if you say something bad , I wouldn't necessarily care.
I'm 14 and hope to get them off before I go away.. to college.

What is your opinion.. I'm just wondering, don't answer if you're going to judge me for wanting to know your opinions.

Anything i should know before getting them on?
