How can I convince my parents to let me get another Turtle?

Question

Hey,

Well let me begin. I currently have tadpoles, Axolotls, a 2yr old short necked turtle and fish. I adopted the turtle a couple of days ago from my friend. I was shopping for my birthday the today with mum and saw this turtle pack. It included a heater, filter, turtle, food and more. It only costs $245 australian dollars. I asked mum and she said 'Your father would have a fit'. How do I convince them to let me get it? I really want it, and please only answer if you can help me. If your going to say something like "Don't you think you have enough?" then I don't want to hear it and its wasting both of our time.

Thanks,

Matt

Answer 1

how I got my turte at age 13 is to obsess over it and know EVERYTHING about it. It took me 1 month of obsessing and then my mom broke down and baught me a 400$ tortoise/enviroment.

ALSO

You're taking such good care of your turtle now, why can't you have another,

OR  

Turtles can't live alone, if they do they get stressed and die, Total lie except for the stressed part.

Answer 2

By looking after the ones you've already got really well, and maybe make them a little leaflet or something which shows everything the Turtle will need, and how it needs to be looked after, to show you care about its health ect!
