Dear TFK ...

It's pretty awesome that immigrants make up 11.5&37; of the U.S. population &91;"Coming to America," 1/30&93;. My parents are immigrants. When they first got here, it was hard for them to find jobs and to adjust to everything. But there are so many opportunities here that they were able to make a good life for us.

I don't think that a country has the right to tell children what they can and can't wear in school &91;"A Clash over Symbols," 1/30&93;. That isn't fair. I'm glad people are protesting the proposed law. People should be able to show what they believe in, as long as it doesn't negatively affect anyone else.

I agree that kids should get eight hours of sleep &91;"The Benefits of Sleep," 1/30&93;. I get nine hours every night, and sometimes I'm still sleepy when I get to school. Hopefully, kids who read the article will take the scientists' advice and try to get enough sleep. It can't hurt.

It must take a lot of effort for Bethany Hamilton to surf after her accident &91;"Surfing Star Rides Again," 1/30&93;! She is a brave girl and a good role model. She is following her dream, and that is important.
