OMG! I have tried the kidnapping story and it didnt work! :)

Answer #4

I tried, heres her problems- -its “obnoxious” -I’ll act stupid -I’ll always be texting I told her that I will be sure that I dont do these things but she still wont believe me :(

Answer #5

tell your mom that texting is something that everyone has… maybe tell her that your gonna do some chores around the house if she pays for texting

Answer #6

make up some cray story like lol go up to her and say you need texting because what if you get kidnapped and you can’t call anyone because its too loud and you might get caught and they only way to survive is to text someone where you are haha make her believe if you don’t get texting you could die. I know I have a strange mind but if your mom is paranoid about stuff like that it will work

Answer #7

I agree with Erika, I told my mom the same story about the kidnapping thing and it actually worked and thats how I got the phone too.
