How can I bribe my parents to give me texting for my birthday?

Question

They are solid and say no. i don't know how to bribe. HELP! they are scrict so try something that works

Answer 1

Don't try to manipulate your parents into giving you something.  I think what you should do is set up a type of reward system where you might do this (such as focus hard on school work) and in return you'll get a month of text service.  That way they will realize how responsible you are (for coming up with a solution to the problem) and may loosen up in the long run.

Answer 2

unlimitied!

Answer 3

First of all, you don't want to bribe them. You want to convince them. Second, if they know you want it they might be adding texting to your plan as a surprise and are telling you No to throw you off. Third, if they already said No, that's what the answer is. You need to respect it. If you want to be able to text, get a job and pay for your own phone. What do you need to text for anyway? It's a phone! If you want to talk to someone, call them.

Answer 4

offer to pay for the texting!
