I just asked my mum if i could part in extra life this year, as with everything she said no, and the excuse she gave was "i dont you u up for 24 hours, you have enough trouble waking up as it is"

Has some one else had a similar experience and has managed to convince their parents to let them take part? Can people suggest things i can say to my mum to convince her to let me take part?

You can still take part, you can do the 24 hours over the week

Report a thread if you think it's worth closing. The OP asked for suggestions, and he's only gotten one. Perhaps he'd like more suggestions.

Perhaps you could show her how much money was raised last year, show her the website of Extra Life, and show her some of the kids' testimonials and stuff.

If that doesn't work, suggest that you break it up into manageable segments.

My mom said I could do it if I found people to sponsor me, but only cause its for a good cause.

Its not about gaming its about helping the kids. Maybe you can do 12h at 17:th and 12h at the make up day... Show your mom the Extra Life site and tell why you wanna take part.. I played doc's little audio thingy thats in every podcast for every one of my sponsors...

I didnt ask, just got some sponsors and assumed they would let me. It worked. :)

Tell her you will go to bed at whatever time and do the remaining quarter/half on Sunday.

I think my chances have slightly increased by nagging like a little baby :)

I showed her the website and it turns out that this women my mum works with husband is doing it, so if i keep on about it i should be able to take part :)

May as well close this now.

Damnit, tried to give you rep for that, but apparently you have made me laugh on other forum threads!

By the by, anyone that gets me laughing out loud gets rep from me, so keep up the funny, people.
