Respected Madam
I would like bring to your notice that my daughter, Wanda Petronski, has complained to me that the students of her class make fun of name and her dresses. This behavior has affected her mind badly. Now she does not want to go to school anymore. It is not good for a reputed school to have such unruly behaving students in a class. However, I have taken a decision that my daughter will not come to your school as we are moving to Chicago where we will not face such problems.
Respected Madam,
I am the father of Wanda. My daughter told me that many of her friends are making fun of her as she was a polish. The children are also making fun of her her and her dress. My daughter's feelings got hurt. So, I took a firm decision. Today onwards, Wanda and Jake will not come to your school at any more costs. We are moving to Chicago where there are many funny names and no one will make fun of her on her name.
Yours truly,
Jane Petronski
