Play the guilt card! It never fails. First talk about how you've always wanted to go to a concert.
Then be super responsible and helpful around the house for the next few days. Once you've got your moms trust, ask her with big eyes and cute face. While asking, explain how hard you've been working in school and how u've helped out around the house, keep telling her all you done and how hard u've worked lately, and you want this as an opertunity to relax and enjoy yourself.. If she says no DONT ARGUE just act all depressed and mope and sigh when shes around.
Then she should crack!
T her over the head with a lamp and take her wallet. Use that money to buy tickets and survive until the concert. Then go to the concert.
Make her feel guilty by explaining how this could badly alter the future of your life or just threaten not to have kids. EVER!
Slip laxatives in her juice and sneak out while she's on the can.
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.
