Am I being unreasonable? Should I be ashamed of myself?
Hi, I'm a fifteen-year-old girl and I was wondering if I was being unreasonable and greedy. When I was thirteen, my mom got me the iPhone 3G that I asked for. It was my only birthday present, but it was perfect and I loved it so much. I had it for eleven days when my mom asked to borrow it. She came home later with the screen cracked. It was falling apart, (chunks were coming out) so she placed a messy strip of packaging tape over it. She told me that it was my fault and that she needed the phone and I was being greedy and selfish. She screamed at me so loud so that the neighbors thought I was irresponsible. I never got my phone back and she still has it to this day. It doesn't work now because she has thrown it down the stairs, dropped it in the toilet and everything else you can imagine, so she's getting herself a new phone. Would it be stupid to ask my mom for a new phone, even that model? I'd offer to help pay, but she won't let me pass our yard, or even answer the house phone. I can't make any money. She's overprotective, I'm not just saying that because I understand rules and restrictions when it comes to being a young teenager. Sorry for making you read all of this, it's a lot, I know. But I needed to ask this.
She took away your phone so just get a new one i think its her fault bcuz she broke it. I don't think you should be ashamed cuz of tht
Is your mother mentally handicapped? Why would she say it was your fault if she was clearly the one who broke it? (Unless I read that wrong.)
I think that, based on the way your mother acts, it would NOT be a good idea. However, if she was a NORMAL person, it would be reasonable.
- Should this be something to be ashamed of? I have an IPOD touch 5 and a iPhone 3G And ima 14year old girl. We were standing there and I was on my IPOD and a girl Said is that an iPhone 5? And the boy that bully's me said "it's an IPOD touch 5… She's a cheapo she can't afford it"
- Should I replace my shattered iPhone 5 front glass myself or take it in? I ordered the front glass for my iphone 5 since it recently got shattered, the LCD works fine though. I heard it is risky it fix it myself so should I just take it in? Or is fixing it myself is a better option for the money?
- I'm very ashamed of myself? Okay so you probably want details. I have dropped my phone numerous times & I have a glass screen protector on it. I was using it in the bathroom one day & I dropped it face down. I picked it up to see the screen was shattered. I screamed then just wondered how this happened. I have an iPhone 6 that I got last November. Can you guys tell me if I'm the only one who's had their phone shattered over a small drop?
- How do I encourage myself and make myself thankful for what I have? I admit I take much for granted, I complain because one thing goes wrong or be sad because I don't have the newest iPhone. To me it feels bad being the middle/lower class student in the rich kid high school. However I try very hard to tell myself I should be more grateful and some people don't have anything, I have a warm bed and roof over my head. But yet I always seem to fall back into a state of wanting. How can I change, so I can increase my happiness?
