Example Letter

Dear Adam,

Thanks a lot for your letter. It was nice to hear from you. In your letter, you mentioned that your parents disapprove of your girlfriend.

Well, that happens quite often. Parents and children often have different beliefs about what is right and wrong. Parents usually believe they are right, while their children often think otherwise.

Fortunately, I don’t have any conflicts with my parents. They get along well with my girlfriend. I always try to follow their advice because they have more life experience than I do. However, if misunderstandings occur, we openly discuss any problems and try to reach a joint decision.

My relationship with my parents is based on trust and mutual understanding rather than domination or prohibition. I hope you’ll be able to get along better with your parents.

I’d better go now—my friend is calling. Keep in touch!

Best regards,
Michael
