CLB5R Read letters to an advice columnist in the newspaper to decide whether you agree with the advice given.

Dear Aunt Aggie,

I have read your reply to Josephine and I disagree with the advice given her.
To advise her to start smoking and don't care about health risk in her age are not smart advices. It sounds like a joke and not respectful.
I agree, smokers often use this habit as a way to relax and deal with stress, but people around should be not involved as a passive smokers. Most public places prohibit to smoke in the buildings and around it to protect non-smokers.
Hope you reply was a funny joke for Josephine and not serious at all.

Have a great day,

Eugene

    Yes, you caught on to Aunt Aggie's sarcasm towards the end! Great job!
    Now that you know the whole article was sarcastic, how would you like to write a letter to Aunt Aggie in that light?
