I hav bn trating thm as my own lif for a long tim. But mothr always thought cartoon divrtd my attntion from study and had a bad ffct on m. Frankly spaking, I had ralizd it. Mothr hatd thos books. Sh had warnd m if I got low marks onc mor sh would gt rid of thm. I Still wantd to kp thos books vn if I would mvr touch thm from thn on. What should I do? I knw that any prsuation was in vain.
