Well right now we have the Hallmark Channel and I'm like YES FOL is going to be on there, but I just found out that starting next month my parents have decided that they are going to quite the big Cable package and go with the smallest Cable Programming Package to save money( I have Dish Network) and that package does not include the Hallmark Channel. So this is were you guys come in I need your help to find a way to convince them into keeping the bigger cable Package or at least some how we can keep the Hallmark channel and I can be able to watch FOL again I need FOL so please help.

Okay, here is my suggestion. I don't know if this is possible, but you could offer to pay the difference between the two cable packages. I lived without cable until highschool when I got a part-time job and paid for it myself. Then my parents were nice enough to pay half so it didn't cost that much. I don't know how much yours is, but maybe you could find a way (allowance, job, birthday money) or maybe you could work off the money that it costs around the house or something.

**If you have VERY kind parents, maybe you could just BEG!!!**

I'd just beg if I were you. I have regular cable, you know, 100 something channels, and it doesn't include Hallmark. So I convinced my dad to get Direct TV so we could get Hallmark. Now, I just need to get his butt out of the house to the store before July 1st.

But honestly, beg. Beg in a nice way, not an annoying way, because if you beg in an annoying way, they will not give in

Be sure to have a good food supply nearby though because if your parents are like mine they won't give in. I ran out of food way too soon, but wait til next time...
