Dear Sigmund Friend

My name is Simon and I am a Grade 9 student. I am crazy   31    football! I love   32    football, reading about football, and of course, playing football. My dream   33   a great football player. However, my love of football has become a big problem, and I would like your   34   .

I have   35   friends, and we always play football together at school or in the park after school. We like staying out late to play football. We often play for three hours or more and forget when to stop. Then I   36    trouble at home because my parents do not allow me to play outside after 6 p.m. I really do not understand why they are so strict. I feel stressed and angry      37   . I believe it is important for us to spend some time on our hobbies. They can help us relax and make our lives    38   .I wish I could have my parents’   39   .

Is it bad to stay out late to play football? Should I spend less time on it? I really do not know    40   . Can you please advise me how to achieve a balance between my schoolwork and my hobbies? Thanks a lot.

Best wishes

Simon
