I have to ask to play the Xbox and sometimes I will sneak and play it in my free time when I’m not supposed too. Is this a good reason why I did it and should I tell my parents this reason:

I sneaked playing the Xbox 3 times and the reason why is because I never get to play it with my friends because I never get to hang out with any friends so then the Xbox is the only way really I can enjoy myself and play with them.

My parents want to get rid of my bird because it doesn't get attention even though they know I always check on it every hour for food and water and I clean the cage once a week. I also hang out with it every hour. I am the only one doing things for it. I try to convince, but they don't want to listen to me. Can someone help me come up with something to say to them or do something else with the bird? I would appreciate it a lot.
