(The only downside is I have to pay for it all... I guess that's fair though, kinda hard to make money when you're 13 but I am DETERMINED.)

    So even if you educate them about all their concerns, yet they say no you gotta respect that.
    Putting it all down on paper really shows how much thought & preparation you've put into this. And I think they respected that...
    Another way is to list all their objections & answer each one...writing practice comes in handy your whole life, believe me, and it shows you can think logically.
    If they still have questions, you could also send them here to ask us themselves, or possibly check out sources from the library.
