I am so sorry this has happened to you. The lying about it aside, you must feel devastated that she has done this. It's not for me to say what you should do with your family, but I feel that I can advise you about your quit.
"I quit smoking mostly for my kids" It's the word 'mostly' I picked up on. I feel sure you quit also for yourself. Go back to when you first quit and the reasons you gave. To have kept a quit going, as you have, for more than 7 months calls for strong will and determination. Did you not do some of it for yourself?
Now you feel a bit betrayed! I think you need to step back and work out what you can do. Take time to think. Maybe you cannot control the situation with your daughter, but you can control your quit. Will you going back to smoking help the situation? I don't think so. Please do not give this as a reason for smoking again. You are stronger than that!
Stay Strong! Love Lolly.

My sixteen year old daughter came over today reeking of cigarette smoke. First she lied which made me mad but it was so obvious she finally confessed. I am upset, I want to smoke. I quit smoking mostly for my kids, I feel like such a waste. We argued about it and she left, she has been living with her dad for almost a year because she thinks I am too controlling. I am so upset I don't even know where to start, I just cry every time I think about it.
