Question Posted Tuesday September 25 2007, 7:50 pm
I need a new cellphone mine's broken and my mom said I can't get a new one enless I pay for it and I don't have a job. I really need a new one cause she's gonna yell when she pays the bill and i didn't use barely any minutes. My warrenty is also expired so I can't get a new one without paying. Does anyone know where a 15 year old can work ?
Like a REAL job.
Only answer if your this age and have a job.

No right at all. It would be extremely ridiculous if she did and I don't think your mom is that ridiculous. It's her choice to pay for your phone bill in the first place. It's her fault and her fault alone that she's paying. If she doesn't wanna pay, she can cancel the service altogether. If she was really concerned about you not using your minutes, she would get you a new phone, so don't worry about that.
Getting a job is going to be really hard since you're 15. It can be hard anyway. It'll be much easier for you to do chores around the house for your mom, grandparents, or other family members. Not only will they give you more than minimum wage (yay), your mom will appreciate you helping out at home and may just purchase a new phone for you herself since she would see you being responsible.
Try looking for phones on eBay. You can get them there for a lot cheaper than you can from the store when you're out of warranty. From the store it's going to cost about $300, while you can get the same phone on eBay for less than $150. I hope you get your new phone soon! Good luck! :) [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]
