I disagree. People shouldn’t push their kids so hard. Parents shouldn’t send their small kids to all kinds of classes. They shouldn’t always compare their children with other children. I believe it’s better to let the kids be kids.
If you’re Linda Miller, tell us your opinion about after-school classes.

If you are Dr. Alice Green, tell us your opinion about after-school classes.
I disagree. In my opinion, all these activities can cause a lot of stress for children. Kids should have time to relax and have fun. If there’s too much pressure, it will be bad for a child’s development. Although it’s normal to want successful children, it’s even more important to have happy children.

Sample
Dear Sir or Madam,
I don't really agree with the opinion that children should take after-school classes because children have to work hard at school and actually they have taken enough stress. Although some parents are right about the ideas to make their children successful, I think children should be respected and have their own interests and hobbies.
Opinion
In my opinion, it is important for parents to talk with their children about whether they are willing to take after-school classes. I believe it is better if parents show their respect to their kids so that there will be a good result. Perhaps communication between parents and children is useful for both parents and children.
Yours truly,
Wang Xiao
