"I'm Optimus Prime!"

My son was quite sick due to the hazzzzzzeeeee .... and had a bad cough and runny nose, so we bought a box of kid's face mask for him.

When I "requested" him to wear the face mask, he was reluctant to do so initially as he felt he might be the odd one out in the public or in his class.

Nevertheless, with a bit of reminder of the education on H1N1, he wore it (whenever he started coughing a lot).

Well, he has his way to encourage himself to wear it as well:
