when you are away from your parent they should want to still be in contact with you and with a cellphone they can have that option. a cellphone can be your lifeline

It's appears that you are not trusted by your parents. Perhaps you should show them through actions that you are a responsible person. Trying to trick someone "especially your parents" into thinking that you are trust worthy is not the best thing, sooner or later you get caught up in a lie, then they will never trust you. Try being honest and prove that you can be trusted, then they will be more than willing to get you a phone.

Show them some literature about Sprint's "Family locator" service. It uses a built-in GPS chip to notify your parents if, (for example) you fail to show up at school by 8:30, or if you travel to certain "out-of-bounds" addresses. It can even tell your parents if you are speeding in your car. It could help locate you in the event of a car wreck or carjacking...
Its a fair trade off. You get a phone, they get a tool to make sure you are not abusing your freedom.

It feels like the two the telephone has forwarding on it, or there is what's pronounced as a translation difficulty from his cellular provider's edge of issues. If the 2d is real, then you definately might desire to have him touch his provider to put in a hassle value tag. they'll locate out what is going on in the historic past it is inflicting all your problems.

Tell them that you will only use the cell phone. Not the home phone :]

you can try telling them that it's for emergencies, in case something happens to you. Communication is available.

Tell them it is for safety/emergency situations as well as for socializing, but mainly for YOUR safety.
