DEAR HARRIETTE: I caught my 16-year-old daughter smoking cigarettes out of her window today, and I’m beside myself. I asked her how long she’s been doing this and who got her into smoking, and she told me this was her first cigarette and nobody told her to smoke. When I looked at her cigarette pack, it was half empty – she was lying to me! I don’t want my daughter to smoke, especially at this young of an age. It’s going to have negative effects on her health, and I’m scared for her future. My husband and I have never smoked anything in either of our lives and definitely nothing in front of our daughter. I’m so disappointed that somewhere down the line we failed her and she felt the need to start smoking.
