Is it wrong of me to make a rule "no goggles at the dinner table"?

Their goggles have these holographic eyes, and it's REALLY creeping me out. I almost regret buying those specifically, but I knew the nieces would adore them. Now, though, I know why they're going to be the only ones in their class with that specific style....

Sounds reasonable enough to me. Goggles aren't part of "normal" house dress, so you don't wear them for "normal" house occasions like meals. Just as they (presumably?) wouldn't wear flippers or hard hats at the dinner table.

Only because they don't have flippers or hard hats. Hell, they argued strenuously that goggles ARE normal house dress!
