Young lady life is hard, then we die. If I agree with Dad you probably won't really consider my answer. My suggestion is not to bicker and whine about the things you want and don't have but to calmly promote and suggest some special way that you might earn it. If the answer is no it's not the end of the world. Things change, give it time, perhaps you can earn it by doing especially good at your school work, extra chores or a part time job. Money is tight and hard to get right now, consider this as the 27 dollars is likely to be much more.

Be a good responsible, patient person and respect your parents decision, no matter what it is. Be strong like the little Chinese girl that fell yesterday in her program. She bowed to the spirit and got stronger....if not now, someday soon you'll get your cell phone. Learn patience, tell you father you love him and respect his decision, remember he's your father. Bow to his spirit, he loves you too. Never question what to say to your parents, tell them you love them and support your family-team first and always. All those folks you're so worried about not having a cell phone to call will fade from view in time but your parents will be in your thoughts forever, respect them.

Actually you can probably find the phone on ebay without a contract and I'm not completely sure but I was told that you could take it into your carrier and have them make it prepaid through their service.
