My 9 month old son unfortunately inherited my ears that stick out. When I was a child I was constantly teased about them and called names like dumbo. I needed up getting them pinned back at 12, but it took a toll on my self esteem for years after. I don't want my son to go through the teasing and comments made from strangers. I have been looking on the Internet and have come across ear buddies to help correct his ears now. Has any1 heard/used these? Did they work? Any other things that I could do now that would help reduce how much they stick out? I personally think he is absolutely adorable an wouldn't change his ears if it wasn't to help save him from teasing in the future.

The only other thing I could think is to put gets over that will hold his ears down. I know that with my brother they trapped his rats and put hats on but they did that from birth and it worked but don't know if being older will make a difference
