My Grandaughter age 11 stays with me 2 or 3 times a week, and this morning on the way to taking her to school, I found a vape which she denied, it was hers or knowing what it was, I told her I was throwing it away, and explained the dangers of smoking etc., I put it on the side to throw away later, and as soon as we were about to go out of the door, she decided she needed the loo, after dropping her to school, I noticed it was missing, obviously she's picked it up, now I know she hangs about with a couple of girls one a year older than her and one 4 years older, when she stays at her own home, and they both vape, (not sure if their Mother knows) but they are not my problem, my Grandaughter is, I am wondering if I should tell my Grandaughters parents, or keep quiet on this occasion, I don't want her to feel she can't come to me with any problems, if she knows I tell her parents.
i actually wrote a reply then deleted it as i didn't want to worry you further but seeing your 16.33 post .i hope she listens to you as peer pressure can lead to all sorts x
