Dear Dr. Sadie,
I am a long-time reader, but first time writer. I really enjoy your columns, and I post them on my wall at work.
Now I need your help. I am stuck in a job I hate. I have the opportunity to do one of two things: I can go to college on a scholarship and become a medical technician, or I can join the circus and travel around the world. Which should I do?
- Conflicted
You should join the circus - I think that's better. If you join the circus, maybe you will get to see jugglers. That's the only good reason to join the circus.
Sadie is 5 years old (though she started when she was 2). Her advice is excellent. Feel free to send her your questions about life and living (askdrsadie@gmail.com). We'll present them to her, and then we'll post her answers here. Follow Dr. Sadie at facebook.com/askdrsadie

Little Brother = Big Bother
Dear Dr. Sadie,
I have a little brother who I love dearly, but he always wants to do everything that I am doing. He takes my toys and follows me around. What can I do?
- Big Sister
You could take your toys before he does. You could dress in one of your scary Halloween costumes and scare your brother. You could use a tiger costume. You could ride around the house on a spooky horse. This works because when spooky things come near little things, it scare them away.
You could get a real horse up to your house, and then you could ride up to your little brother, and then he wouldn't take your toys, because he was scared.

Jumping ship?
Dear Dr. Sadie,
I have been married to a wonderful man for 5 years. He's kind, educated, very good looking, intelligent and sensitive. He treats me very well. We have a beautiful 2 year old son. Our life is truly wonderful. I look around me at all of the unemployment, poverty, marital strife and unhappiness, and I am so grateful for all that I have. I am truly blessed.
I find myself thinking romantic thoughts about my mechanic. He's rough, filthy and is generally rude and obnoxious. I find him physically repulsive. Still, not a day goes by that I don't think about leaving my family behind and shacking up with him. Please help!!!
- Confused Wife and Mother
You should marry the mechanic, because then you won't have to go to his place to get your car fixed. You should leave your husband and son behind because they might want to marry other people, too. You need to marry lots of different people. It's not good to stay with one person all the time.
