508's Secret English Garden

Dear sister,                                        50836蕭行雅

  I know that you have fallen in love with a guy recently.  Since then, you haven’t paid attention to your schoolwork and that really worries Mom and Dad.  As your older sister, I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to make boyfriends at senior high stage.  Here are the reasons:

  Because we are still students, studying should be our top priority.  If a man who always gets down to what he likes first, but sets aside what he is supposed to do, he might get nothing but failure eventually.  Now you kept talking on the phone with the guy, neglecting your studies.  As a student, you should spend more time on schoolwork.

  Furthermore, our mentalities are not mature enough for romance.  You may harm each other even beyond remedy.  For example, I had a friend who was once excellent both in her studies and behavior at school.  Rather, things changed after she made a key pal boyfriend.  Her study was declining worth and worth, and what is more, she’s now a 17-year-old mother.

  Falling in love at the age of seventeen is risky.  We ought to postpone it until college.  You can also come to me when you face any difficulties.  Let us figure it out together.                                            

                                                              Yours sincerely
