Author Topic: My dad owes me an iPod since last year.  (Read 921 times)

Yes true, last spring, we moved to a new house and our old house needed some work to do so we could sell it (Its all torn up and stuff because we lived in it for 15 years straight). So my dad said to me and my brother that if we worked on the house for 45 hours collectively that he would give us an iPod. So, we did those hours but my brother got them done before me because I didn't work on it as much as my brother, and he got his iPod.

Finally I got all my 45 hours done and I asked him if I could get one and he said "Next time I get paid."
Every month I remind him and now I'm trying to remind him weekly and still he hasn't given me one.

Just keep giving him subtle reminders, and he should eventually give in.

Gift him one, so he can gift it to you.

Give him the big one:

"Dad you are breaking promises"


Parents HATE that.

Almost always works for me.

Post sticky notes all over your room saying IPOD!

I have done that, and surprisingly, he doesn't budge.

Buy him an iPod and he will buy you one.

LOL, if this works on your parent, they really are soft.

If I told my dad that he wouldn't care.

At least now you can get the fouth generation rather than third!

My dad's not up-to-date with Technology (EDIT: Besides Cell Phones.) He's gonna go to Wal-Mart and see that they are expensive or something and go on E-Bay and find the first thing that says iPod.

Remind him daily instead of weekly.

Yeah I am doing that now. There might be a chance he will get me one.
