Dear Ann Landers,
am a professional man (certified public ac-countant), 40 years of age and the father of four young boys. I am at-tracted to little girls. Please do not recommend that I seek psychiatric care because I have already gone that route with two psychiatrists and a clinical psycholo-gist. "Treatment" has cost me more than $6,000, and I received no help whatsoever. You cannot respond to my home because my wife might open the letter and it would mean the end of our marriage. Please help. I am desperate. -No City, No State, Just Dead-End Street, USA

Dear USA,
When people are sick the only advice I can give is "See a doctor," and you are among the sickest. Even though you feel the professionals did not help you, I'm going to recommend that you try still another therapist. Apparently you were "helped" sufficiently so that your activities are kept to a minimum. The alternative is to keep going along without therapy. Then, one of these days, the father of a little girl to whom you become "attracted" may put a large hole in your head-and no jury would convict him.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
