Hullo!
If you are really worried about her you should talk to her, over dinner is not the best time, obviuosly, but you can talk to her some other time, in a car journey when it's just you & her (and possibly the dog). she probably will get a boyfriend soon enough, so make sure you talk about boys too! If you think she is having sex or something, talk about it, don't get angry, she doesn't need you turning against her yet, but make sure she understands teenage pregnacy is awful and stupid, because you can't live a normal life, and niether can the kid. Tell her some stories (be imaginative!) about when things go wrong, but not so extreme, and say how important contraception is and how you can catch STI's (sexually transmitted diseases).
Good luck with your move and I'm sure everything will be just brilliant. (it always is when you are keen!)
Bye bye!

Maybe have a chat with your child and find out how she is settling in and what she likes to do. Does she have any special friends? I wish you well with your move in the future.
take care

Why don't you sit down with your daughter and talk to her about what she gets up to. Ok she might not be 100% truthful with you but talking to her may make her realise that she can talk to you about anything.
It varies per 16 year old what they get up to. She may be having a perfectly innocent time with her friends.
