My school would like to buy ipads for around 700 euro and since we don't have any money in abundance, I can't get my long-wanted laptop
I would like to prevent it because I really had to wait / save a long time.
How can I get that done? (And please don't write something like "you can't do anything")
With great hope
Your school wants one thing for the lesson and you want the other one privately. Both things have nothing to do with each other!
If you are not financially well, you can ask the parents' advisory council, they can't take away your savings
Do I see that correctly, the school would like to use ipads uniformly, but the purchase should be paid for privately? I would already veto it as a parent. If the school wants you to use these things, the school should also finance them and make them available to you.
do you have to spend your savings on school supplies? I paid for the school supplies for my son, but I have to add that back then the school and the parents always looked for the cheapest solutions.
It's not like we're poor, there's only 6 of us… And two ipads don't complain
Does your family have to pay for the iPad yourself, or do you get it on loan and your parents don't want to buy you an extra device because you already have one? My opinion about iPads / tablets for school is this: I would now be stuck with iPads. I now have several hundred school files on my Mac, which I have to sort into folders or sections in order not to lose control. With an iPad / tablet this is difficult or not possible at all. I see it with my classmates (8th grade): They all only have smartphones and tablets and forget and always lose something (one has even been threatened with a reference). They no longer know what they gave up and what they didn't. It was the best decision that I bought a computer last year. If you get the opportunity, then you should definitely use it. That is not made up!
Well if you have 6 children you can already apply, even if your parents have a normsles income, try it does no harm, the only thing that can be is that your parents are too proud for something
No I have 3 siblings and 2 parents
Sorry what you're talking about. Everyone always runs around with their cell phones but their files are not organized. And yes, I've already observed this phenomenon.
Congratulations, you managed to do better.
Ah ok
I don't understand why it has to be ipads anyway my tablet cost 150 euro (samsung) and works great, for 700 euro you get a better pc
I would really apply with 4 children, with us families with more than 3 children did not need to pay school fees, the parents' council regulated that
It works best with iPads, there's nothing you can do, you just have to ask yourself what is more important to you:
Getting along well in school to get a well-paid job that may even fulfill you later.
Or now to have a laptop for private consumption and not get along well in school and later only get lousy and poorly paid jobs that eats your soul and all feelings.
In addition, iPads are not just dirt like Android tablets, you can also use an older model or a used one.
Or you buy on installments, Apple would cost 40 euro / month over 24 months.
You can have something paid by the tax office, you just have to enter the purchase price in the correct line in the tax return.
For example, an acquaintance has a friend to whom the tax office would have almost completely paid his brag wedding if the bride had not refused to have her groom's company logo on her dress.
We get what we have to buy
And they are expensive
So I still have 3 siblings and 700 euro is not a little sitting on the parents' council of course only people who have 1 or 2 children and have no problem calling 700 euro to buy an ipad
So we can't get it on loan
And I have to pay for it myself. I would like to have the laptop for learning and gaming purposes (I generally do a lot on Word e.t.c because my handwriting is cruel.
Oh, they're not that expensive, besides:
An iPad Pro can do almost everything a normal laptop can.
An iPad Pro can do that too.
In addition, child benefit is provided for such expenses that your parents receive for you, so they have to pay you.
I don't doubt that. Only the file order can't be implemented as well as on an iPad. I really appreciate the drag and drop function on my Mac.
Not really. As I understand it, he has to buy the iPad for school purposes but then has to keep it private forever, even if he doesn't really like it. But as I think about it, I realize that this story would be very absurd. I increasingly doubt that the questioner has given everything truthfully.
