Letter For Father

Your Honor,
I would like to begin my letter by stating that I believe both a mother and father need to be present in a child’s life for their to be healthy growth and development in a child.

By doing this, my mother has demonstrated that she, intentionally or unintentionally, disregards my prospects for the future. By cementing these grossly hyperbolic statements in her letters, she has diminished the chance of me getting, a job, internship, scholarship, etc. from anyone or any institution that does a character or background check for applicants.
