How do i convince my parents for me to get a macbook pro?

[Julia]

I wanted a mac book pro the 13" and i would pay for it. But my mom keeps on saying no. Shes like a overprotective mom. She doesnt let me go on youtube or like facebook.how do i convince her that i am ready for an macbook pro im pretty mature lol. P.S. Im 13

it's not that you need maturity to use macbook. she probably thinks that it's an unnecessary expense, and the money you have to pay for it probably comes from your parents/relatives anyways (unless 13 year olds can work where you live)
if anything, try to justify why you NEED a MacBook (if you can) or see if shell settle for something cheaper maybe
