My dad said i can't get a new phone how do i tell him a need it?

Answer 1

Do you REALLY need a new phone? If you don't but you are just tired of the one you have now, there is a pretty big chance that your dad won't get you one. If it's broken and you can show it to him that it doesn't work then I recommend you tell him whats wrong with it and see if he will get you one. (:

Answer 2

Throw a hissy fit and maybe he will cave. Have you ever taken a second to wonder why he said no? Maybe he can't afford it, how much do you know about your family's finances? Do you realize how much cell phones cost each month? Show some respect and ask him for something when you need it, not when you WANT it. That sounds like a 3 year old attitude.

Answer 3

Unfortunately, he is correct - you WANT a new phone, but you can go on living perfectly fine with your old one...

NEEDS are things like food and shelter - everything else is a WANT.

But back to your question - just keep dropping hints until your birthday comes up, and you'll have an even better phone by then ;);)

Answer 4

Why do you NEED a NEW phone? What is wrong with the phone you have? A phone is not a necessity of life, it is possible to live without one.

Answer 5

You don't NEED a phone. Maybe a Trac Fone with about 30 minutes on it max so you can call home when you need a ride. Otherwise you can call your friends on your parents phones.

Answer 6

You just want it...you don't need it. As a matter of fact no one needs a phone.

If it's so important to get a new phone...work until you can pay for it yourself.

Answer 7

Answer 8

uhhh...pay for it yourself...get a job...you are lucky you have a phone at all...stop whining.
