So /adv/ I think my parents are fucked
>be 18
>me and my parents paid for the same phone company
>After third payment, parents say they won't pay for this month because its pretty fucking expensive (Sprint)
>The phones that we got, were all LG G5's
>The deal was buy 2 get another free, and so they went with that
>We ended up keeping the phones since they stopped paying for the lines and phones
>I end up losing the phone 3 weeks after they stopped paying
>Father asks me if could give him the phone because Sprint wants them back
>Tell him I lost it, he loses his shit
>Now he has to come up with $1,800 dollars to pay for the phones, because apparently you have to return all three phones and not just two or less
I really don't want to cause any problems but I need some advice on how to handle this kind of situation. I can't get a job since I'm still in High School and an illegal immigrant. Please help!
>get phones on a deal
>think you can stop paying with no repercussions
You and your family are all dumbasses
youre the reason why we're building the wall.
i hope you get deported
>buy something you can't afford
>stop paying on it
>lose it
>think it just works itself out and everything is fine

1,800 is not an easy thing to come up with man. Losing a phone is a typical teenager thing to do. He could probably call the company and make up the difference of one phone, which should not be anywhere near 1,800. Have him do that. Unless you have a way to find the phone it's really all you and your family can do. You can start working under the table but it would take you a while to save up 1,800.

This is precisely the reason you don't give a teenager a $600 phone.
>buy $600 phone
>buy $60 phone
Both run the latest version of Android, one is "free" with your inflated monthly 5 year contract, and the other you buy outright and don't have to worry about your contract, or "free" two year upgrade, or if you're on a month to month.
