The Back Brace

Puberty sucks. Particularly if you're a teenage boy diagnosed with scoliosis and forced by your zealously well-intentioned parents to wear a backbrace. This is the tragic and awkward world of Carolyn and Andy London's autobiographical animated short. 'The Backbrace' is a chronicle of puberty, social humiliation and the perils of overparenting.

Oh man! I just saw it today on the tv and I had to find it on youtube! I had to wear a back brace too... well, after seeing this, I guess I should be glad that it wasn't so tragic after all... but it was no fun either... ^.^ Really good job!!!

i feel the same i tired of feeling different i wanna where my old clothes and if i have surgery i have a scar and i dont want one. I want my old life back. Havin a back brace or surgery is both painful and thats something i think no one wants
