I am 14 years old and in desperate need of a cell phone. For one having a cell phone would really connect me to the world, number 2 is IN CASE OF EMERGENCY. But my PARENTS, including brother DONT BELIEVE IN CELL PHONES! I mean they cannot stand them, NO one in my family has ever owned one, and they say "no one in the family ever will". I REALLY need to convince my parents that I do need one...

PS
incase it helps I do get 4.0's every quarter. AND I have already told them about the whole "I need one for emergancys, and they say "You shouldnt be so dependant on cell phones! And thats why were not getting you one!"
GRR
THX!
 
To be honest there isn't too much you can do rather than try being a pain in their asses or being more persuasive.
Other than that you can buy a cellphone using your own money, but a teenager can't earn that much money. Possible though.
 
okay that sucks. and to the person who answered before, you actually can, the cell phone itself isn't that expensive, but the plan would be really expensive.

okay here's what you do. go out with friends, and say you'll be home at a certain time. stay out later, then when they get mad say

i tried to get in touch with you but since i didn't have a cell phone there was no way to!!

so then they will say well you could have borrowed your friends. then be like, but mom what about next time, when there are no friends around whose phones i can borrow. i need one of my own. and be like well if cell phones are so stupid and nobody had them then i could never get in touch with you guys.
