[1]Hi, I write this letter to you, my parents, to let you know what I’m thinking．
[2]Running a business, raising three children, then raising all three into self-sufficient college graduates is difficult to do．While loving each child individually and fairly, strict house rules have also developed…going out late is difficult to accomplish．I would like to suggest setting a later curfew(宵禁), maybe midnight, or even one o’clock in the morning．

[4]Gaining confidence and trust from you both are things I look forward to, and hopefully I am at an age where I can live up to your expectations．I acknowledge that you are watching over me, and don’t want your little girl to be hurt, and I appreciate that fully．But I can ________ now that I am older．
[5]For the time and effort it has taken you to raise me, I sincerely thank you, but letting freedom into my teenage years will be beneficial to all of us．Please feel free to talk to me whenever you have made a decision．I’ll always be around．
