At the moment I have an office laptop with 4GB RAM on which Minecraft doesn't even run smoothly. I would like to buy a 300-400 euro PC (with my pocket money), but my mother says I would only get addicted and gamble all day. We also need PCs for school, but she says a laptop like this would be completely sufficient for that, which is true in itself.
So do you have any tips on how I could persuade them?
I need the pc for school
Tell her that you can use the games to improve your ability to work in a team, your speed of reaction and your English skills and that you would like to try things like 3D animation, music production or video editing, for which you also need a powerful computer and what may be yours in the future Could become a profession.
If I hadn't gambled all night long with my international guild, I would never have become perfect in English. If I hadn't built my own website for the guild and edited images in Photoshop, I might not be the art director today.
"We also need PCs for school, but she says a laptop like this would be enough for that, which is true in itself."
If you actually need to use software that doesn't run on your laptop because it's not powerful enough, that's the simplest answer. Possibly. Talk to your teacher so that the one on the phone with your mother that the need is actually there
I would advise against the laptop, as they usually have significantly less power for a higher price and are difficult to upgrade.
We only need Word and Powerpoint and such in school
Yes, thank you, I know that too xD

I would ask your parents why they focus on a laptop like that. They don't have a single advantage except that they are easier to transport and they have a few hours of battery life.
Be generous and, most importantly, be patient. Help your parents around the house and try to save money as much as possible. Then at some point your parents will get the impression that you are not only addicted to gambling, but that you can also be helpful and independent. They may then reward you with your desired PC.
Well because I would be able to afford a PC myself, since I've been saving for a long time, but thanks anyway.
Ou Sorry (I dulli)
