Dear Sir
I was most distressed to receive Aditya’s report card yesterday. I have examined it most carefully and it appears that, with the single exception of games, his work has been thoroughly unsatisfactory.
I am, first of all, anxious to assure you that I am in no way attaching any blame to you or your staff in this matter. Rather I am seeking to solicit your further help. In my talks with Aditya, I have gained the impression that he has given a considerable amount of time to games this term. Whilst I am sure that these are good for him; I am wondering if they are not taking too high a proportion of both his time and interest. I should be grateful, therefore, if you would consider making some adjustments to his timetable so that he can devote more attention than he appears to devote at present to some of his academic subjects.
Fathers are always biased, I suppose, but I have faith in the boy that there is more in him than his reports seem to indicate and I shall be glad to cooperate with you in any way you suggest to improve this serious situation.
Yours sincerely
Ved Parkash
