UNDERSTAND PLEZE...

yea you r.im 16 as well and my parents dont want to pay for a phone,bill,texting,etc. so I have to get one myself.im in the same boat your in.

every one has their different times when they should get a cell phone, so although 16 is technically old enough, you may in her eyes still not be mature enough no offense
find out why she dosnt want you to have one
maybe you can talk it out and compromise or somethin!
but just make shur with her that you wont abuse the privlige of having a cell phone and calling all the time when you do get one

Sit down with her calmly and ask her the reasons - respect her answer - if she says not now, ask at what age...Takecare !!

I think youre old enough. say to them it would be a good idea to have a phone in case you are in some sort of trouble and you need to get hold of them (emergency reasons) start using it more frequintly and they will get used to it ( :
if they refuse to pay the phone bills then you will have to pay them if you want a phone really badly
anyway... good luck

OMG! You´re sooo old enough. I got my first cellphone at the age of 11!!!

I got one when I was 12..your old enough!

I don't think it,s cause of your age may be she just knows that you will ring up a high bill and just doesn't want2 pay it I'm all so 16 and I don't have 1 either

YEAH your OLD ENOUGH TO HAVE ONE

My parents said they were never going to get me one but I just started bugging them like everyday so I got one in 7th grade. just always be busy and come home late and be like I would of called you but I dont have a cell phone
