KimberlyKTX Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 The best time is when they are relaxed and in a good mood - not when they are busy with something else or worried about something. The best way? Put the game into a new light - it's not JUST a game, but an educational vehicle... Think about it - it's the perfect way to REALLY lean about economics, supply and demand - it is a perfect (well, as perfect as you can get without being real life) working model of an economic system. You make stuff, you sell stuff, you buy stuff - we learn that it's not always a good idea to sell to a store because they have to make their profit and you don't get as much money. We learn how to barter and sell our products AND we learn how to work harder if we want to buy something that costs a lot of money (like the whip I want.) Best of all, if you offer to pay for the membership with your own money then it's teaching YOU responsibility. I would get my allowance and then turn around and HAND them the money for your membership - and I would make sure that I always had it to give them when it was coming due. I think if you sit down and talk to them about this in an intelligent way - they are at least going to think about it! Good luck!!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowmasta13 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Scraping together $5 a month shouldn't be that hard, unless you have no neighbors. I have my paren'ts credit card number, pin, and security code all memorized, so it isn't a big deal for me. But then they started reading the bills. D'oh. #-o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celebelian Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 before I grew up and had to pay for it myself... I did this: Get your little brother to ask first, then say "Well *insert little brother's name* has it, why can't I?" They can't very well say no to that :wink: If you don't have a little brother (or sister)... I can't help you #-o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sohkmj1 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Well, if you just tell them all the benefits, and how happy it would make you :thumbsup: they should give you a straight answer. yep the "straight" answer is a NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiriyama Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Look best thing to do is say you'll pay for it yourself, worked for me. Denizen of Darkness| PSN= sworddude198 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomnameless Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 If you cant barrow you parent credit card. Just take like thirty two dollars and buy a thirty dollar visa gift card. Than just use that to get six months, repate steps as necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanthorn Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 kick and scream on the floor yelling "i want it i want it i want it" :) I like that idea. The only other method i can think of is by SMS? But i don't think you live in the UK. I did use to pay by Splash Plastic, which you can get, not sure if its available where you live though. Anyway, my parents let me have members cause its my money, so, i'm not an expert! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
