Answer 1

Well to be honest texting is relatively important when you're in HS. It's easy convenient and quiet. However the whole thing with your friends was shady because they could have easily called you, and invited you to the hang out. Not inviting someone just because they can't text message is stupid so I don't know how good of friends they are. As for your problem don't constantly beg to your mom to add texting, wait for a couple of weeks and come up to her and act reasonable, mature and politely ask her if she could add texting. Just tell her all the reasons why you want texting, and how cheap it is. If you ask in a mature fashion I'm sure she'll give in.
