http://answers.ask.com/Society/Other/how_do_you_get_your_parents_to_say_yes
- Think about why you want what you want (for example, I wanted my macbook for music. come up with at least 3 reasons, if you don't have that many, don't ask)
- Be prepared for that dreaded NO.
- Save up half the money for the thing you want (I want an iPad so I'll save up 250$)
- Ask your parents politely (if they say yes, great, if they say no once, THEN offer to pay half)
- Smile & make eye contact! (do not cross your arms!)
- Do not yell, slam doors or insult your parents
- Always ask when they're in a good mood
- Don't ever start your proposal with "I know you're going to say no..."
- If they say "I'll think about it" don't pester them. They'll think about it and get back to you.
- THINK about what you're going to say before you talk
- Say please & thank you (:
If they say no, try again in a couple of weeks or, just save up and buy the thing yourself! It isn't the end of the world
