I received one letter regarding deny or admit. 

they know I have been looking at forums for advice since my parents are not educated so they can only help me as much as they are able to

for my brothers letter
this is a draft

To whom this may concern,
I (father name) will be writing on behalf of (brother name) because he is a child. I firstly would like to apologise for my older sons behaviour while he was in a stressed out state nevertheless he did commit a offence even if he didn’t know it was one.
On 17th May 2023 (brother name) was not aware that his older brother used his card until after he came home from school, this is when his brother apologised and told him. (My name) was home because he’s on study leave for his exams. (Brother name) left his oyster on the table. He didn’t take it to school because he had a bike injury. He was dropped and picked up in car by his mother.

I'm not really sure what else we can write. my parents and sister said to ask for any more feedback before they send it off.

thats useless.

i think you miss the whole point of our advice...

can you not get someone with an adult brain to view this thread and talk to us... like one of your parents....

i have my suspicions they dont know anything about your threads here nor on that other forum nor the advise given.

hi, thanks for the feedback 

I’m going to show my parents and my older sister the forums as I have only told them about it they haven’t read it through. 
I have one question, is the start of the letter fine?

I (father name) will be writing on behalf of (brother name) because he is a child. I firstly would like to apologise for my older sons behaviour while he was in a stressed out state nevertheless he did commit a offence even if he didn’t know it was one. 
 

is this okay?

[dx100uk]

no i would be making it a lot less formal.

and they know he is a minor as thats why they sent it to the parent/guardian, and anyway its obvious to everyone they are...it's a 11-15yrs old pass...think about...

the letter ask for parent input regarding the incident

that is what needs answering.

my parents disagreed with telling them that my brother knew. they dont want him involved at all.

this is what they have written up.

any feedback will be appreciated as its being sent today.

this is what they wrote:
any feedback will be appreciated
YB= younger brother
M= me ( who messed up )

To whom this may concern,
YB was not aware of his brother taking his oyster. On 17th May 2023 YB and M were together at this point M was visibly distressed and asked YB for his oyster which he replied its on the table. YB left to go school with his mother. He didn’t take his oyster with him because he had a bike injury in which his mother has to take him to school and home.
Then afterwards M who you already know was very stressed out took the oyster.
I as a parent am ashamed and wished M would have asked me before doing this. I am very disappointed and will make sure that this will never happen again. As you already will know that we ordered both oysters for both of my children.
As well as M has offered to pay for the fare and any additional charges.
Please forgive both M for his behaviour.
I promise to you that he did not mean for any of this to happen and was only focusing on his exams.
