How to convince the parents to get me a cellphone?

I'm going to be 15 soon and I want a cellphone SO badly. All of my friends, even my friends little siblings, have cellphones. My parents got my older brother, 16, one and he barely cared about cellphones. I think if it were up to my dad I'd get one, but my mom is dead set against it. How do I convince them to get me one for my birthday? And would the Blackberry Pearl Flip 8220 be too much for me?How to convince the parents to get me a cellphone?
my parents are exactly the same way. my dad ordered me one and when it got here my mom told me i couldn't have it. im turning 16 and all of my friends have them. i have a job and can pay for it myself but they still don't let me. i really don't think there is any way to change their minds.....How to convince the parents to get me a cellphone?
Tell them it would be safe to have one. Since you are a teen, and you go alot of places by yourself, you would need a cell phone to contact them. First, try asking them for a simple cell phone,such as a prepaid phone. Try a tracfone.They cost only $10, and they are only $20 for a card per month. Maybe if they see you can manage this phone, they might let you get something more advanced, such as the Blackberry Pearl Flip 8220. Hope it works!
well think about it you will be driving soon so a cell phone would be good to have.





if you are hanging with friends and you need your parents to pick you up you need a cell phone for this





my parents got me a cell phone because of these reasons
