The best way is to say "Mama, I lost my phone. Hook me up with a new one please." If she says yes, swet talk her into getting an Iphone. Them things is the bomb

She wouldnt have given her the third phone if that was the case.

Hm. I dont know, to be perfectly honest i dont think she might get you another phone after this. Especially it being the 4th one but its still worth a try, you should tell her you lost it just be like "mom, im really sorry but i lost my phone"
depending on how old you are she might get you another one or not. |

Just tell her you lost the phone, and be prepared not to have one for a few months because you're incredibly, incredibly careless. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Maybe you'll learn to take better care of the cell phone that your momma is paying for you.
And LOL @ "reget" |

You should just tell her the truth, but don't ask her for a new one. Learn to live without one for a little while; you don't absolutely need a cell phone. Your mom might get you a new one sooner if you don't ask, or she might just get you an inexpensive one in case you lose it again.

Explain to her what happened and you know what you did was wrong. Be honest and don't lie. It worked with tons of things for me

Just tell her that you lost it. Don't go up to her and say that you need a new one, because then she might get more angry with you. Eventually she'll realize that it would be nice for you to have one, for her to get in contact with you, and buy you one. But, honestly, you need a secure place to put that thing.

You can Tell Tmobile to cancel the phone that got lost and they can prolly give you the same number again w/ a different code. My phone got jacked and My mama was helllla pissed x542345. Jst buy yourself a new phone and do something about the sim. or hella take alla the cellies in the house and change the old cell number and switch it to the new phone Number when you get it ahaha

"Hey, Mom, I lost my phone again, sorry."
and if it's true.. "I promise I'll be more careful if you get me another one. I won't lose it, I've learned my lesson." booyah. |

^ Um. No.
You should say, "I promise I'll be more careful if you let ME get another one." Because you actually might mean what you say, instead of f**king up a fourth time on your momma's dollar. |

thanks for the replies, but I found it (as i do most of the time i forget it somewhere).
and thanks for calling me careless. I get that a lot. I guess I have too many things on my mind, Because currently, my mind is very jumbled by juggling band (since we're going to go to the rose parade, we've been practicing almost daily), jazz band, orchestra, the district orchestra, piano lessons, a pending diploma exam in april, pre-college blues, grades, family drama and daily insignificances... XD also, one more thing is that i've been eating less and wanting to sleep more ... but thats just because i'm too tired to eat and i just want to sleep, if i ever have the time XD I must be really lucky, to always find anything i lose, including my backpack during 5th period (i left it out by mistake) and all those other lunch boxes and scarves that I keep on leaving in the bandroom XD (that band director knows my tendencies so whenever she finds my stuff, she puts it in her office ^ ^;;) |

tell her that you lost your phone.. or else matters would get worse. tell her that you don't want another phone, because your just gonna lose it again. prove to her that you can responible, and maybe she'll get a phone for you.. or like a walkie-talkie hehe xD! just kidding, just tell her though, or else if she worries about you, and calls your cellphone.. and no answer. she'll freak! so just give her a headsup!

You need to take better care of your things. And there really isn't a point to sweet talking her. If you let her find out, I can at least tell you it'll end up being worse.
If I was your mom I'd make you pay for your own phone. Then maybe you'd realize the importance and would keep track of it. |

I'm not sure if you can get a new phone + sim card since the plan is under your mom's name. She'll have to be notified i think..
Anyways just tell her and get it over with. It'll be one less thing on your mind. Insist that you pay for the phone if she lets you get another. That'll show her you're sorry and somewhat responsible lol =] It's easy to forget things. I almost lost my phone plenty of times. I even left it on top of my friend's car once and he drove away. It flew off his car while he was going 25-30mph and it still works
