How can I convince my parents to buy me a new phone? - 1
I'm chinese… Yes being Chinese has something to do with this. My parents have really old iPads and won't get new ones. My first phone was a iPhone 4s and I still have that, my sister then gave me a Samsung note 3 on my 15th birthday. So I'm currently using that this year. Only problem is that the Wi-Fi stopped working a long time ago and the Bluetooth doesn't work either. So basically… I'm stuck with a now useless phone. I can't really afford that much because I'm a kid. No, I don't get allowance as I said again my parents are Chinese (they're cheap okay?) They rarely buy me things it's all my sister that has been supporting me and my younger brother with electronics and clothes. Etc. Our parents are pretty bad parents, always going to casino leaving us at home with the cheapest food like Mcdonalds. (She buys a bunch a 1 dollar burgers and call it a day) it's our meal for the whole day too. :/
Well even if you're young you're not young enough to not get a job even just part time. If you really want it you gotta go get it. I started working when I was 16. Sorry some parents don't buy their kids phones a lot.
Sounds like your parents may have a gambling problem. So maybe you could talk to them about the house always wins.
They aren't cheap, they are gamblers. GOODNESS. Call child services on them next time they live you with nothing to eat but a few burgers!
- What should I do should I get a new phone or not be embarrassed? And how do I convince my parents to get me a new phone? I have an iPhone 4 and it is 2017. The iPhone 7 already came out and I jane a 4. I feel really embarrassed when I take out my phone that I don't take it out because my friends have the iPhone 6 and 7.
- My parents won't buy me a new phone? I still have an iPhone 4s, it's like 7 years old, it can't even get new updates, it's small, and it's painfully laggy. Mine is stuck on iOS 8, I can't even update it. My parents say "that phone is fine", it's not fine. It barely works. They not let me get a new iPhone, I want at least an iPhone 6 and they won't even get me that. What should I do? I'm going crazy.
- If I buy a new phone and restore my phone will a virus transfer to the new phone? I believe my iPhone has a virus but I'm not sure. I'm due for a new phone anyways but I need to know that if I do have a virus on my current phone, will it transfer with my information and data to my new phone?
- How to convince my parents to get me a iPhone X? A few years ago was my bar mitzvah and I made a few thousand dollars. Some of my friends have the IPhone X and it is so cool I asked my parents if I can use my money to buy myself one and they said absolauntly not and I really want one
