want a new phone
My parents wont let me have a new phone for christmas. I got one about 7 months ago but it's not very good and I really want a new one. I tried negotiating with them and asking if I could have it as a joint present from them and my grandparents but they said no. I can't afford to save up for it myself and I'm only 13 so I can't work for the cash. My parents wont let me babysit. How can I persuade them to let me have the phone? Or, how can I raise the money to get it myself?

Im 14 & I got my phone at 13 too. I pursuaded my dad to get me mine by proving to him that i'm responsible n that I'd do whatever it took to get my phone. But the thing is with me I pay my phone bill on my own, my parents don't pay it for me and thats one of the reasons my dad even got me the phone so I dont know.

i know your 13 and so some of these things might sound silly. what you might be albe to do to get the money is create a lemon-ade stand, make string jewlry and sell it or get a job at a place where they hire kids around 13-14
good luck!

i know what its like but my parents made me buy it myself! sience you kno they're not gonna break and they wont let you baby sit try doing chores around the house. rake up the leaves in your neighbors yard collect can and plastic bottles and turn them in for cash all of this will add up and b4 you know it u'll have the phone of your dreams!
