How can you convince your parents to let you have a cell phone when they say no even when you offer to pay for it?

Get your mom in a headlock and man check your dad.

Make sure you have a good understanding of what you're asking for so that you will have answers for your parents' questions. For example, if you want your parents to let you at least have a cell phone, research how much the phone and different plans will cost. If you want them to let you have a dog, research how much maintenance the dog will require and how much it will cost to have one.

Explaining your case in an organized manner will help your parents feel more comfortable with the idea, because you'll seem mature and thoughtful. Also, if you are willing to, consider paying for a portion of the price of something you desire. If you want to spend the night at someone else's house, make sure your parents have access to your friend's house number.

If you want a body piercing or tattoo, have the number of the establishment or some reliable websites about the practice itself. It also helps if they know the person you want to sleepover with or if they have seen the tattoo shop before. 3Write a list of main points.

It's easy to get caught in a shouting match and lose track of the points you wanted to make in the first place. Write down the 3 or 4 main things you want to say in convincing your parents. Go back to them during the discussion and make sure those points have been discussed.

4Prepare for questions like 'Is your room clean?' etc. Prepare ahead of time by cleaning your room, bathroom, living room, etc. before you ask. Your parents will soon see how much you want it. 1Pick the right time.

Find a time when your parents seem relaxed and happy to have the discussion. It is not a good idea to ask for something when either parent seems stressed or tired, because they will likely be annoyed. If you haven't completed something they've asked of you, such as chores or homework, this is another easy (and valid) reason for objection, so get those chores done first.

2Maintain a calm tone. If you whine or get angry, your parents will likely think you are not mature enough to handle whatever it is you are asking them for. Even if you end up not getting your way, behaving maturely throughout will set the tone for future discussions that may go your way.

3Give them time to think about it. Don't force them to give you an answer right away.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
