How do i get my dad to let me buy an xbox 360 or PS3?

Question

My mom is fine with it, but my dad said he doesn't want one in his house. i think he thinks ill play it too much. i worked for this money and i have plenty to buy both, but i only want one or the other.

Answer 1

tell him that

you worked hard for your money

and finally you get to buy something

with YOUR own money

not his

it might work

Answer 2

You can start the ps3 by saying it has a built in dvd player. then tell him he can chat with his bussiness partners and just his friends. tell him that your dad can put a password on it so you cant play too much. That only works for the ps3. The xbox360 does not have it.

tell your dad its my money i can use it when ever and where ever I want

Answer 3

If you do convince your dad you should get an 80 gb ps3 it's freaking awesome,love the features on it.

Answer 4

if u got the money i dont see why not its your cash

and tell your did f off

go stright up to him and ask why not and make him give u a reason just dont make him say no because its not an answer

Answer 5

You have got to law done the law and tell him that's YOUR MONEY and you can buy anything you want with it. ( but if your consle ever breaks, he probally won't help you)  get a elite 360 or an 60mg ps3

Answer 6

Will he talk to you about why he feels this way?

Tell him you want to understand his reason behind that decision, because it will help you to deal with it better.

Then try and work out a compromise.

Answer 7

If you live in your parents' house, they make the rules, no matter how old you are.

That said, show your dad that you're not just a kid that sits around and does nothing. Pull your share around the house. Treat mom & dad with respect.

Answer 8

i think you should get an xbox 360 and i think you should get it but just show your dad dat your responsable (dont play for too long)  and it is your money not his
