Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
offer to do things around the yard or to do things around the house. The way i got my cell phone was just bugging my mom because mine got broken. Just start saying that you will mow the yard, do the dishes, etc. you may not like doing that stuff but would you want to do that or get any cell phone you want? maybe you can ask all of your teachers for extra credit so you can get all a's! good luck! hope i helped!

hey! im the same way about the grades..so i always get my dad to make a deal with me..try to make a deal with them where if all your grades on your report card is above 90 then they get you a new phone..thats wat i did with my dad except i had to have 92's or above! but since i knew i wasnt gonna get that, i 'renegotiated'(sp) with him and now im just gettin one! try that and if it doesnt work then offer to pay for half of the phone you want or (if your old enough) get a job and buy it yourself! offer to do anything around the house to get it!

whatever you do, do not break it! lol you could offer to pay for half of it or show that you are really making a sincere effort to do well in school. it works like a charm in my family and theyre not easy! good luck! <3
