4. Read the pieces of advice Agony Aunt gives and match them with the letters. Are any of your ideas mentioned?

a) Dear ...

The situation you described is very common, and I have experienced something similar myself. It's boring when you get only money for your birthday because you get the impression that people don't care about you at all. One possible explanation why they do it is because it's difficult to predict what exactly you need, so why not make a Wish List and let your friends know in advance what you are dreaming of. Try to consider it from a different perspective: just spend this money on the things you really want to get. And if you really want to make a memorable present to a friend of yours, make sure you get to know them really well first.

I hope that helps.

b) Dear ...,

I totally understand where you're coming from and I felt the same way in high school. What I learned was that money does not make the world go round. You should definitely try really hard to do what you love – it's one of the ways to live a happy life. However, you should also understand that money is an important part of our life and think of how you can make money from your hobbies. For example, if you're a terrific dancer, you might end up opening your dance school or becoming a professional dancer. You can make a fortune out of these activities, but remember that you have to put a lot of effort into achieving any goal you set. As for your parents, why don't you show them how serious you are about your intentions?

Hope to hear from you soon and see how things are going.

c) Dear ...,

You should worry about doing well at school and not about what others say about you. That will show real confidence in yourself because your success later in life in most cases doesn't depend on what you wear at school. The clothes you wear are one of the ways to express yourself, but it's definitely not the only one. Why don't you try to become successful in other areas (school, sports, music, etc.) and see how people will react to you then? Or if you feel really stressed out, you could always find a part-time job and earn the money you need.

Best wishes,

Agony Aunt
