Hello,

I really think you should consider attending High School Graduation! It is an important time in a teenager’s life to see his peers move on to the real world. If you do not attend, you will regret it later in life. This is a big step for you as you make your way from a child to an adult. Your graduation ceremony is a once in a lifetime symbol of this transition. I hope you choose to attend.

Sincerely,
A friend
