In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Tell your parents how contacts could benefit you. They could boost your confidence, or perhaps colored contacts will complete a costume you worked so hard on. Listen quietly and calmly to what your parents have to say. If you play a sport, this could be a big selling point in convincing your parents to let you get contact lenses. For example, you could tell your parents, “Hey dad, I have to take off my glasses for football practice and I couldn’t see the ball.”  This will show your parents that contacts are a necessity for your best performance at sports. Your parents may be more willing to let you try them out for a little bit before making any big commitments. Most contact companies offer a free or discounted trial for a certain amount of time. Don’t be discouraged if a particular contact doesn’t work for you. Refer to your doctor for a different brand and start a new trial. It may take a few tries before you find your ideal fit. Knowledge is power! Demonstrate to your parents that you have done your research and understand how to properly take care of your contacts and your eyes.  Print a guide from the internet to go through it with your parents. Offer to add more to the guide if they have questions you cannot answer. Tape it up on the fridge so they have something to look back on if they have more questions.  Demonstrate awareness of germs and sanitary cleaning. Contacts can severely damage your eyes if they are not kept clean.This can be as simple as washing your hands more, or regularly disinfecting high-traffic surfaces.
Summary: Discuss the pros and cons of contacts. Ask if you can try some trial lenses. Show that you will take care of your contacts.

Stale, day-old bread will work the best for this recipe. The more rustic and hearty the bread is, the better! Keep beating the eggs until they are smooth and pale yellow with no streaks remaining. You can do this by hand with a whisk, or you can use a stick blender. Beat everything together once more with your whisk until the texture is smooth and the color is consistent. For a more traditional flavor, add 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon. A nonstick frying pan will work the best, but you can use a regular one as well—grease it well with about 1 tablespoon (15 grams) of coconut oil (or non-dairy butter). The pan needs to be hot enough to sizzle a droplet of water. Make sure that you soak both sides of the bread in the batter and that it is completely soaked through. Hold the slice over the bowl for a moment and let the excess batter drip back into it. Place the bread onto the pan. If your pan is big enough, you can add another slice of batter-soaked bead—just make sure that the edges are not touching. Fry the bread for 2 to 4 minutes, flip it over with a spatula, then cook it for another 2 to 4 minutes. It's ready when it is crispy and golden-brown. The pan may start to turn dry after a few batches. If this happens, simply add more coconut oil (or non-dairy butter) to it. Keep the already-made toast by covering it with a clean towel. You can serve it jut as it is, or garnish it with your choice of toppings. Maple syrup and/or non-dairy butter are the most traditional, but you can also try toasted coconut or a sliced banana.

Problem: Article: Diatomaceous earth (DE) comes in two forms. Most DE sold as a pest control treatment or labeled "food-grade" is safe for home use and not linked to serious health issues. Never use pool grade or industrial grade DE in your home, since these forms can (eventually) cause permanent respiratory problems.  All DE products are actually a mix of the "safe" and "unsafe" types. Food grade DE still has a small amount of "unsafe" DE, and is still dangerous if inhaled in large quantities. DE sold for pest control has to meet specific safety standards and list safe instructions on the label (at least in the US), so this is usually the best choice. Food grade DE may not have a detailed safety label, since it is not intended to be used in pure, dry form, but it is similar to pest-grade DE and the risk of harm is low with the precautions below. Since food-grade DE is meant to be stirred into food and eaten, some people assume it is completely safe. However, the concentrated, dry powder can seriously irritate the lungs, eyes, and skin. Review these safety precautions before you begin:  Always wear a dust mask at minimum, since inhalation is the main danger. A respirator mask is much better, especially if you plan to use DE many times.  Wear gloves, eye protection, long sleeves, and long trousers. Keep children and pets away from the carpet while the diatomaceous earth is there. Consider testing a small area first, following the instructions below. Assuming there are no negative reactions from you our your household members, repeat on the rest of the carpet. Professional pest controls use special dusters to put down a fine, even layer of dust, but these can be hard for consumers to find. You can use a feather duster, paint brush, or flour sifter instead. Spoon (don't pour) the DE onto the dusting tool slowly, to avoid a cloud of dust. Squeeze bottles or bellows are not recommended, since they cause too much drifting.
Summary:
Use pest grade or food grade diatomaceous earth. Follow safety instructions. Choose a dusting tool.
