Convincing Your Parents To Get You a Horse

It can be hard to get your parents to agree to a big purchase like a horse, but with the right approach and information, you can make an argument that could encourage them to invest in your beloved companion. Here are a few things to bear in mind before you begin your conversation.

Steps

  • Understand the expenses associated with owning a horse. Talk to your parents about the financial costs of caring for a horse.
  • Learn about how much time commitment is needed for a horse. Horses need to be fed, groomed, and exercised regularly in order to stay healthy.
  • Show your parents that you are responsible. Show your parents that you are willing to take on the responsibility of owning a horse by doing small chores around the house.
  • Include older family members in your conversation. If your grandparents, aunts or uncles have had horses or know someone with one, they can be valuable supporters of your proposed addition to the family.
  • Calculate the cost savings of owning a horse. Explain to your parents that with the right care, owning a horse can actually save money in the long run.
  • Find a middle ground with your parents. Listen to what they say and offer more details about the costs, responsibilities, and other factors that should be considered.

By taking these steps and preparing a well-rounded argument about the benefits of owning a horse, you will have a better chance of convincing your parents to let you have one.
