I mean I've been lost lots of times and my schedule could change anytime. She keeps saying "NO!" and tells me I'm still too young and not independent enough to own a mobile. I just can settle with a cheap $20 a month plan and you may be thinking if you want a phone then get a job? Well I tried but I have gotten rejected from many places because I simply do not own a mobile therefore they can not contact me. So what can I do to convince her in a reasonable manner that will not end in some random conflict because in this day and age, nearly every teenager in a developed country owns a phone.</blockquote>
