I want to thank every one again (sm)

In Reply to: My 16-year-old daughter smoking - KC

For all the input and advice. My husband and I are nonsmokers, so I guess I just never expected one of my children to start smoking. As a teen, I did experiment with smoking, but didn't like it and so I never developed a habit. I have asked her if she feels like she has to have a cigarette now, and she will not answer me. I really think she is embarrassed, so I let her know that although I didn't approve of smoking, I really needed to know whether or not she felt she was addicted to nicotine. She has been wanting to get her driver's permit. I told her that as long as I had reason to believe she is smoking, she will not be getting her permit. I know how badly she wants to get her permit, so I am hoping I will get somewhere with her this way. And - I will start googling and sending her as many pictures as I can find.

Thanks everyone!
