宝儿今年五年级。从上个月起他就开始琢磨要一个什么样子的圣诞礼物了。他在网上看到一个相机，很喜欢，希望作为圣诞礼物。当时我们没有多想，反正一年就这么一个礼物，就答应了。
马上六年级了，给他报了模拟考试，但是这几次的结果很不好。因此我狠狠地说如果再考不好就没有圣诞礼物，谁让你总是紧张不起来。他听了当时没有说什么，第二天放学，给我发了一封email。全文如下:

Dear mummy,
I would like to point out that this is a request
December the 25th is Christmas with many presents and gifts. I have wished Santa (you and dad) to give me a present which as u know is a camera. U have said that I need to get good grades for it and I will try my absolute best. However if I don't get the grades, could I have it anyway? For the love filming. U might think that this is a crazy idea after all but I don't want my grades to affect my joy and excitement for Christmas. Remember that this is only ONE gift not 7 like last year nor 10 before that. All I am asking for is a camera. I could use it at camp. Aren't u always wanting to know what happens whenever I go? That is one good opportunity.
If u think that the camera is too expensive, I'll pay for it. And I'll pay for the storage card as well. Happy? Then u have finished reading but if ur not, keep on reading.
Feel free to rest up eyes whenever U want to.
I have always given grandpa tons of good luck when he had a stroke and I was always there for u when were upset. At least gimme something back.
I kept all of the secrets u told me to keep and try my best in all areas. I went over the top in expression in drama and in the captain speeches. I have always wanted to make u a happy person but sometimes I fail to do that.
I was the guy who never gave up the happy feelings to grandpa when u were scared out of your mind.
I was the guy who was caring to all others.
I was the guy who cheers up Mrs XXXX when she was afraid that her grandpa wouldn't make it through an operation (he did make it).
And I was the guy who keeps the family together. When I go, others miss me a lot.
So what do u say? Yes or no?
If no, I could find another one trillion reasons to persuade u.
Just remember, persistence, I will Never give up on that camera. That is how bad I want it.

peace out

应该给他
圣诞礼物不要跟考试啥的拉上关系，我从没有给过奖励孩子是因为考试好坏，吃饭啥的不算。。。

要个相机还是给买了吧， 要是要GAMES就另说。

太便宜他了……起码也得给翻译成中文才行……
圣诞礼物的确不应该和成绩挂钩。毫无关系的两件事。

可爱的儿子，persistent，很好啊！

圣诞礼物和生日礼物应该是一年中，家长无条件给孩子的礼物。不应该和成绩挂钩。更何况孩子要的是相机（除非lz觉得太贵了）不是游戏机或者是别的。
并且lz之前已经答应了，不该反悔。圣诞礼物更不应该和成绩挂钩。
lz想想，孩子那么喜欢相机，说不定他将来能成为很好的摄影师呢。一切皆有可能不是吗

贵，很贵，非常贵

我的第一架相机是我姑姑和我爸各出三分之一，再加上我的积蓄，现在还留着呢。LZ还是买吧，相机真值得买给孩子。
