22. Let’s help Dear students, I have a problem and I’d like your advice.
My daughter Alice is six years old. She is very fond of dancing and her PE teacher thinks she has a good shape and it’s a good idea to send her to a sports school. I really would like her to become a gymnast but my husband does not agree. He wants her to learn more knowledge in an ordinary school. What should I do? Can you help me?
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Betty Smith
