Answer 1

get a job , and buy them your self

Answer 2

bubblez.10100 - contacts are not that expensive. If you have some money saved, tell your mom you'll pay for them yourself.

Ask her to make an eye exam appointment (depending on where you go, and whether or not it's covered on your parent's insurance, it should cost about $35-65).  You can get your eyes examined and also find out what kind of contacts you would need and the costs.  Then figure out how to pay for your contacts yourself.

Answer 3

Maybe, get a job and buy them yourself.

That will def. show her.

Answer 4

If I am reading your question correctly, you mean not responsible enough to take care of your own eyes? If money isn't the issue and you don't have eyesight complications, I would recommend one-day contact lens. You start with a new pair every morning and throw away the used pair at night. Nothing to clean or store...less responsiblity, healthier for your eyes, but more expensive.
