A reader blasts Abby for reruns of the plea Please, God, I'm Only 17. Others defend the letter, sharing how reading it moved them to rethink recklessness and drinking before driving. A 19 year old recounts halting a wedding over a whiskey issue, while a 16 year old vows to avoid drunk driving after the letter's impact.
