Morgan+M's+Persuasive+Letter

Dear Mom, I would like to go to South West Plaza mall without parents and just with my friends. The mall is a really fun place for teens to go and hang out with each other and buy or look at cool things! I believe that kids need a sense of freedom and with that sense of freedom also comes responsibility. I have a lot of responsibility, but an experience like this would just give me more respect and responsibility for you and others. I could learn how to look for sales and what is the right price for certain things that would help me in my adult life.

I understand that you are worried about my personal safety, but with so many stores with kind people in them if anything happened, I cold run into one of the stores to be safe. I would also be with a group of kids, including some older kids that nobody would mess with. With so many people around the mall, you are right it could be a threat. With my cell phone I could call you often to check up with you and I would always stay near stores so I wouldn't be out in the open where there cold be a possible threat. I do realize that I am young to be at the mall,but not too young. I am 12 years old and even Dylan or Mariah could come with me and my friends as a chaperon. People as old as me go to the mall all the time without their parents and there is plenty of mothers with their children around that we could run to if needed. The only time that "bad people" are at the mall is on Friday nights and sometimes Saturday nights. You have let me go to Aspen Grove before by myself and when you are outside it is cold and random people could grab you since it is a walking outside kind of mall!

Your reasons are logical, and any mother would be worried. I asher you that I would be perfectly safe with all my friends. You are an amazing mother, and you care so much about me! Thank you, and I hope that you can think about your decision after you read my letter.
