Sorry guys, I didn't have time to read all this carefully, but I still didn't see any mention of Amber, who goes with my son.

Good luck is trying to go back to being a former smoker Megan. I hope you can keep cigarettes out of the hands of your daughters. Girls around that age are sure starting in my area.
The very disgusting teeny-booper smoking lounge is between our shed and the one belonging to the new neighbors. The smoke on the other side of our fence. For a time Amy and her husband Paul were over last night. Their freshman daughter was out with Jane's son, a junior, and their 7th grader was over with the crew Tom and Debbie's daughter Lacy.
Lacy seems to smoke rather often during the day. She's barely 12. Her brother Tom also is known to smoke but not as much as his little Sister. Tom is in the 8th grade and Lacy, the 6th. It still appears that they are getting cigarettes from her older sister Laine. It appears her parents are not interested in what goes on between the sheds.
Amy, who smoked with Marilyn at work, did not smoke at our house and appears to have not smoked since she bummed a couple off of Marilyn Friday.
Marilyn has recently returned to smoking. She has daughters, Heidi and Tammy, also in the 8th and 6th grades. My 6th grade son says Tammy tries to compete with Lacy and Kelli, another 6th grader, as top smoker. Of course, Lacy is out even when the others are with their parents.
My 6th grade son says he only hangs out there. My 8th grade son, who has hopes of being on the football and basketball varsity next year, hangs around with another girl and they hand with another boy and girl.
My 9th grade son is on the varsity baseball team and played regularly on the football team that made 3 weeks into the playoffs.
Our girls have a playoff softball game Monday night and the boys Tuesday. No more home games for us.

Apparently Tom Junior and Lacy, The smokers are in the 8th and 6th grade. I have boys that age. My middle son in the 8th grade is not associating with them that much but my youngest is in the 6th grade and is over there every day after school.
He says he does not smoke with them but at least 3 other girls in the age group do.
Marilyn, who has taken up smoking again after years of being quit, has found a smoking buddy and they are bringing along another old friend.
Rhonda is daughter of the owner and was given a job by her parents when they retired, actually handing over operation of the company to a granddaughter. Rhonda is the younger daughter of the owners and has been spoiled all her life.
Her ex, Jack, occasional appears in local social circles. Rhonda is just into company community relations with our company and usually only keeps company with the rich and famous. There aren't that many in town.
Back at the salt mine, Amy, who waited until she was 23 to have her first child, is joining Marilyn, and sometimes Rhonda, in smoking. Amy is 37.
Smokers can take off with the habit and then drop off after a couple of months, I've noticed. Right now, Brooke, nearing 40, is smoking with her daughter, Sheridan, who is about to graduate from high school.
Brooke and Elaine tried smoking for the first time when their husbands were out of town over the Easter weekend. Elaine decided it was not her. Brooke did not like cigarettes but her husband did so she is pushing the envelope. Brooke has no other children but one of Elaine's is hanging out with Lacy. Kelli is a sixth grader like Lacy. Marilyn's 2 are Heidi and Tammy.
The girls playing softball are warming up for the playoffs in one location tonight while my son's baseball team will be in a district game tonight in another location.
