Allow my daughter to smoke
My husband and I are both heavy smokers. My 11 year old daughter was smoking in her room when I unexpectedly walked in on her. After the awkward moment passed, we talked and found out she has been smoking for nearly half a year and is addicted. I told her it was OK for her to smoke. I feel a bit guilty but not too much, for some reason. My husband flat out didn't care if she smoked or not. I wonder if I did the right thing. I know smoking isn't very healthy, but at her age, I guess it isn't doing all that much harm. Besides, how can I tell her not to smoke if I keep puffing away at 2 packs per day. Neither my husband nor I are about to quit. We love smoking too much for that. So instead I watch my little girl puffing away at the rate of 1 pack a day. She smokes like it's nothing. She reminds me of myself when I was around her age.
HI Megan,
It's always a pleasure to read your material honey and more pleasing that you're making progress with your rehab.I can understand your desire to do the most menial tasks alone by going to the bathroom. I may have mentioned that the girls have a girlfriend, Amber, born a total quadriplegic who has no use of her hands and she's wheelchair bound for life. I do her hair from time to time and I take her shopping with the girls. Her dad is a friend of Rick's.
My business is going extremely well although January is renowned as the most month of the year because people are on holiday. Bookings for February are looking good even at this early stage. There are 3 other salons in the Mall where my partner and I have our shop however ours is the only one that has full a beautician service. Last July we were successful in getting a contract from an over 55's retirement village to do hair and makeup every Monday and Friday. It has a 2-chair salon within the facility so I only have to buy products, pay a nominal rent and pay wages so I hired two more girls. The problem is that these senior residents of the village do not smoke and all my female staff smoke. this means they have to walk off the facility to smoke between cuts. I rotate the roster to give staff a fair go in that respect. Most times in the mall it gets hectic and I usually only have time to grab an apple or other type of fruit and I stand outside the mall chainsmoking throughout my lunch hour.
The babies are doing well according to the clinic. I walked up the street pushing their pram with them last Sunday, it was so hot and on the way back the women I know stopped me to have a look at them. All I wanted to do was get home.
Cont......
Megan, I chose the name for one of the babies - Liberty because it means freedom but I couldn't find another meaning the same, so after a week I chose Summer as the name for the other because she was smiling the most and seemed warmer. Soon after they acted the same and this blew my theory out of the water.
I'm glad you mentioned Freja's reluctance to post. Lilly and Ren have often said to me mum Freja won't post. I told them both to encourage her to write by asking her direct questions. Please ask her to get in contact with the girls here, all of them, Ren, Lilly and Oskana.
I absolutely love the idea of Olivia smoking, she'd be a cute smoker and she will increase and inhale more as she smokes more cigs To tell you the truth I can't wait until Liberty and Summer start smoking although I've got a long wait yet.
Perhaps Izzy can get her mum a man honey, maybe the dad of Noah or Liam hahaha.
If only we were a bit younger again we could have had a lot more fun and I don't discourage the girls for all the s ex they get at this time.
Love to you and lotza get well wishes
