Well then you should never ask anyone to pray to Jesus for you. Because if you do, you are using other people to get His ear.
The bible teaches us to pray for each other.
Roms. 1:9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers."
But we are not to communicate with the dead.
Deut. 18:10-11 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a with, or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
Necromancer" From a Greek word meaning to divine with the dead; one who tries to cmmunicate with the dead.

Anyone can pray to Jesus for anything - including other people - however I think you already knew that and were just twisting the comment to inflame me- perhaps I misunderstood you.
To clarify, I dont have to pray to Mary, who will then whisper in the ear of Jesus on my behalf. I can pray directly to Him and He hears me. You are welcome to do otherwise. My point was, anyone can pray directly to Jesus, without the aid of the Blessed Virgin Mother.
May He richly bless you.
