@Caitlynn: Honestly you shuld make a fundraiser or ask your frineds if they can help out to get ypu a phone.

i was in a pretty similar senario 4 a while-

but honestly,, flip phones actually work pretty well- if yr mom doesnt want u 2 have like a full on phone just ask 4 a flip phone, a lot actually have like an internet browser so thats pretty cool + they have a whole 90s/2000s vibe (i had 1 for abt 2 years and it worked rly well!! + they r more affordable)

or u could try 2 negotiate and like make rules abt how yr gonna use it (like social media accsess, who u can text, when u can use it,,, yyknw that sorta stuff)

im 16 and still dont have a phone, i really need one though because i plan on getting a job soon and stuff. i dont know if this will work but you could just be like ¨what if i need to call 911 but cant because i dont have a phone? what if you need to pick me up??¨ or something, its a pretty solid argument.
