should i keep going?” a long way from 12 now, i realize he would have been proud when i made any progress. lately, though, ive come to believe he would want me to move on to what comes next: to be proud of , and believe in somebody else. its time to start writing my own letters to my children. our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. our kids dont hold back because theyre afraid to fail. theyre only afraid of failing us. they dont worry about being disappointed. their fear - as mine was until my fathers letter- is of being a disappointment. give your children permission to succeed. theyre waiting for you to believe in them. i always knew my parents loved me. but trust me: that belief will be more complete , that love will be more real, and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts ：“dont worry; youll do something great .”not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.64. we learn from the text that the author_. a. lost his father when he was young b. worked hard before he read his fathers letter c. asked his fathers permission to believe in himself d. knew exactly what great thing his father wanted him to do 65. what does the author tell us in the 3rd paragraph?

a. university education is really worth the money in englandb. university education is worth all over the world except in englandc. british education is becoming more expensive for a majority of british students d. british students dont like to go to university70. we can infer from the
