Dear Abby is now written by her daughter since Abigail Van Buren passed away about 18 months ago. Newspapers carry advice columnists on a syndicated basis, that is, they pick the ones they want to publish. Ask Ann is written by the two assistants to Ann Landers, sister of Abigail, who also passed away a couple of years ago. There are a dozen others but you have to look in the newspaper to see which ones they carry.
Are you familiar with Dr. Laura? Laura Schlessinger has a cross country radio show noon to 3 p.m. in California KFI 640 am. She is the best and has been for last 30 years. You can call her show at 1-800-Dr. Laura between above hours. She has written about 8 books, the best being "Ten Stupid Things Women Do To Mess Up Their Lives." Same title for the one for men. Also one for parents of children "Ten Stupid........Mess up their Children." I am CPS Investigator and I know good, solid, useful advice when I hear it. And no, I do not know Dr. L. or work for the show.

Sure. Dear Amy is pretty good. Ann Landers has a well known column, and I think your newspaper probably has some local advice columnists too.
