Hi Donna -

Brianna will be trying a cig. soon, no doubt about that.

If Jennifer is asking for smoke to be blown in her face, she'll be taking a drag soon, too, whether or not you give her permission to smoke.

Sounds to me like these are done deals.

If either or both of them enjoy smoking and want to continue to smoke, it'll be easiest if you make it a comfortable atmosphere at home.

Good luck.
