Dear Miss Penny is an advice column created with the intent to assist young adults in answering questions about all topics surrounding life, love and the future. Miss Penny is not a doctor, nor does she claim to be. She merely submits to the notion that an older sibling's advice, or that of a distant friend's, is valuable in it of itself and should be treated as simply and solely that. So...ask away!
