Now, nearly 9 months later, she home for three weeks until she goes back to college. I founf cigarrettes in her purse. i asked her about them and she told me she would quit; this was 2 weeks ago. Christmas is tomorrow. but i cant keep this in any longer. I get in trouble and grounded for "acting weird" as i cover for her. and im sick of taking the heat for her. i want to tell my mom so bad, because me and my mom are extremely close. I dont want to ruin Christmas though... help?

If she's in college she's old enough to make her own decisions, and your mother needs to get more in her life so that she can be the one who finds this stuff out... you're mom's not doing that because she DOESN'T want to know...

if u think u can confront her without it being weird during the holidays go for it, but otherwise wait till after new years and tell ur mother or talk to ur sister about it, because it could be somthing thats to personal for her to just overcome, but then again it could just be herself being curious and experimental. but the party thing seems like what a older sibling being cool would act like, cuz my brother (32) is like a 17 yr old acting out in high school. hope this may help ur thoughts
