At what age should I officially allow my niece to smoke?

Anti-smoking people go away now.

My daughter was allowed to smoke from 14. Now I have a 14 yo niece to look after. She smokes anyway, this I know, but when do you make it "official"?

@homespun2 Hi - not a question of whether I "let" her smoke. She and her friends already do. My original question should've used the phrase "at what age do you let them get away with it?"

Sorry the fags messed you up. May do that to me too.

My more serious concern is her potential alcohol/drug consumption.

Jill. And thanks for replying.
