Dear Sam,     
Thank you for your letter. Sorry I haven’t written for so long. I have been really busy with my exams. How are you keeping?     
In your letter you ask about my opinion whether parents should control how children spend their pocket money. I think that we should listen to advice of parents because they wish us well. Speaking about a part-time job, of course, it will bring you our own money and more freedom. My parents never argue with me as they know that I’m saving all money for summer courses.     
It’s really good news about your cousin. What are your plans for summer? Are you going to take her to an amusement park? Or are you going to travel somewhere together?  
I’m looking forward to your answer. Keep in touch.
Love,
Vasya
