"Shout"

I've read two letters in the magazine for young people, ''Shout''. The first letter was written by Sasha - a 15 year old girl. Kelly wrote the second letter. Kelly is 16.
Both girls complain in their letters. They are unhappy with their families. The girls ask for advice on how to solve their problems. What are their complains about?
Sasha says that she doesn't have any privacy, because family surrounds her all the time. Sasha's younger sister always asks ''What's up?'', even when Sasha wants to be alone, and takes Sasha's stuff without her permission. Sasha's brothers nag her with embarrassing questions about boyfriends and clothes and show her up before her classmates. Her parents don't allow her to stay at the night at her friends' houses. Sasha's father always asks her about homework.
Also, she thinks that the distribution of housework is unfair. She does all of the housework alone and her family members don't help her.
Kelly's situation is absolutely opposite. She doesn't have father, she never knew him. Kelly must care for her mother. Her mother has a mental illness and sometimes her actions become wild. Occasionally Kelly has to live in the children's home or with foster parents. She always lives in different places. Kelly says that children's homes are okay, but she feels uncomfortable when strangers surround her.
I don't think she wants to complain, just share her problems with the readers. She says: ''My life is okay in some ways''. She tries to stay positive, but her loneliness depresses her sometimes.
In my opinion, Kelly's problems are more deeper than Sasha's. If I were an editor of "Shout" I would advise Sasha to be more patient, because all we have the same problems. Sasha doesn't understand how lucky she is. She has a big family: parents, brothers and a sister. However, Kelly is completely alone. In my opinion, Sasha should talk with her family members and reach a compromise. They should talk about the borders of her private life and about how to share the housework fairly. I think that will be able to help them to solve their problems. When Sasha leaves home after graduating from school, she will miss her parents, brothers and sister. 

I want to advise Kelly to think about her friends and mother. Kelly, you aren't completely alone!
You must be strong and patient, study and work hard.

I think she will reach her goals. I wish that her dreams become real.
Everyone of us has problems with our family sometimes, but all we shouldn't forget to appreciate them.
