Any regrets? Contact Agony Aunt: Just for laughs 

Everybody reads agony columns quite avidly. Call it an obtuse glee at seeing others suffer, or genuine empathy; but I’m sure none can overlook a column that reads like this: 

Dear Agony Aunt, 

I am a thirteen-year-old. Most of my friends are having the time of their lives, but mum insists I shouldn’t go out on dates. Please advise. 

                                                                                                                                          Miss Demeanour 

AA: The best thing to do is let your mother know what you’re up to. Take her along with you on your next date. 

Dear AA, 

I’m having an extra-marital affair, but my wife insists we shouldn’t divorce. Advise. 

                                                                                                                                             Allen Deavouring 

AA: Eat your cake and have it too! 

Dear AA, 

I’m so down, I want to commit suicide; only for the fear that I’ll regret it later. Help! 

                                                                                                                                              Deep Ressed 

AA: Always remember, there’s more regret in not doing the things one wants to do than in doing them.
