Firstly, you must sort out your grammar!

Surely, your parents won't take your request seriously unless you can convey your point adeptly, with at least some coherence!

Now, on to the answer:

Firstly, you are eleven years old. you are blinded by your equestrian passion, and you must accept that horses take an awful lot of care and attention. At your age, you do not have the time to focus on a horse. You should be focusing on school work to get yourself in a good position for the future, and to ensure that you get into good classes in high school.

Secondly, many girls your age go through a phase of 2Horse Passion", and your parents are quite right to refuse you, as if you were only going through a phase, what will happen to the poor horse when you tire of him and decide you prefer boys and drinking alcopops in a park?

Thirdly, horses require A LOT of attention. You must be prepared to go out, whatever the weather, whatever the condition to care for your equine. You must also be aware that horse ownership is incredibly traumatic emotionally, and I doubt that, as an eleven year old, you are able to cope without the mental and physical strain horse ownership places upon you.

Fourthly, horses are expensive. Vet bills, tack, farrier, training, riding lessons, boarding, feed, grooming equipment, bedding and many other factors must be taken into consideration. They cost a ridiculous amoutn of money at the end of the day, and you must understand that your parents may be unable to cope with the financial strain.

However, I own three horses, and though we have battled through tough times, harrowing injuries, extortion (I did say they were expensive...) and rainy days as well as many other things, they have brought me nothing but joy.

Without Sutton, Florian and Ophelia I do not know how I'd cope!

After you have considered all the points I have outlined, think long and hard. If you still want a horse, and think your family can cope with the horse, and more importantly, if you yourself can cope, go ahead and ask. I'll be interested to hear the outcome; don't hesitate to contact me!
