Read the teenager’s letters published in a youth magazine. �Give them advice.

Hi. My name is Helen. I’m 16.

I have a problem with my mum.

She doesn’t like my boyfriend. She

doesn’t trust him and doesn’t let me

to hang out with him. I’d like that

my mum respect my choice. I’m not

a child any more!

​

Hi! I’m Jess. My father forgot about me!

I understand that it’s very difficult to find a well-

paid job. My dad has one and he has to work hard and little

time is left to spend with me. I don’t even remember when

he talked to me last time. It’s not right I think!

Hello! I’m Nora. My dad

And mum are ok, but they

have too much control

over me and I lack of privacy.

When I go out with friends,

I always have to be back home

by 10 p.m. I have to ask

permission for everything.

It doesn’t fair.

My name’s David. Recently I changed

my school and now I have problems with

my new classmates. They always make fun

of me and tease me because of my nationality.

It’s too difficult for to adapt.
