haha i had the exact same problem, my parents were beyond stubborn. lets see i tried to make deals, write a letter explaining the good uses of a cell including emergancys also maybe print out some good information about cell phones, but this part you may not like but maybe try to add some limits. like uhh if you go over the bill you will pay, and you take responsibility, try to make some rules that your parents would be impressed. explain how you feel about you being old enough to have onee

good luck and hope i helped :]

Have you tried writing her a letter?

I don't know your mom's personality but if she's a reasonable person and you write the letter in a way that makes her sympathetic, that could work. Mention how your friends are all contacting each other and you feel out of the loop. Also mention how by having one it is easier for you to contact HER while you're out and in case of an emergency :)

If she sticks to waiting until Christmas, I guess the best you can do is wait until Christmas. But if you sound desperate enough and she can afford to get you it, she may give in.

Good luck.
