Dear Dr Wells,
I’m writing to you to seek advice. My name is Omar and I’m a secondary school student. I can’t
make up my mind about a personal problem.
I’ll sit for the baccalaureate exam soon. I’ll certainly succeed, but my parents are old and are in
need of financial help. I would really like to help them. However, If I do so, I will have to give up
my dream of becoming a doctor . In short I am in a dilemma. On the one hand, If I decide to help,
I will have to renounce to my registration at the university. On the other hand, if I don’t, I’ll feel
guilty of not helping my family. I have no one to turn to. What should/can I do ?
Sincerely,
“Miserable”
