Dear Jack,
I’m middle school student. I’m writing to tell you my problem with my mother. She is a doctor, whom works very hard. She is strict in me, but she is too busy with her work that she found little time to talk to me. I love her
and I do well in my studies, but I still feel a little of afraid of her because she loses her temper easy. I don’t know how to communicate with her. Maybe that’s why we have seldom sat down and exchanged our feeling and thoughts. I hope we can know more about each other and understand each other well. I do hope we’ll be closer. What can I do?
Looking forward to your reply.
Best wishes!
Your sincerely,
Tom
