Living Familly

How should I punish my teenager for disclosing a familly secret?
With a smirk, my teen just told me last night that she has disclosed a very personal family secret to all her friends and that her friends hate me because of it. I was stunned and am so hurt and embarrassed by this rotten behavior. I took her phone away and computer, but I did that out of anger. When I tried to talk to her, she just mocked me and walked out. If I had ever treated my parents this way, they would have beaten the living hell out of me. What should I do?
I just talked to her. She said she did not really disclose the secret; was just mad at me for the moment and wanted a reaction. We really need time to reconnect so I am taking her to a resort spa this weekend, a mother-daughter pampering session. Thanks for all your replies; they were helpful (some funny).
been through this myself I know what teenage daughters can be like. Mine cut herself told everyone it as me and god my name was mud everywhere!
Tell her you want to understand why she wants to hurt you so much and calmly let her know you love her no matter what happens and talk to her at her level. Give back her fone and pc as a sign of tolerance and trust
There are much deeper underlying problems as to why you daughter is wanting to hurt you and you must find OUT what these are o get over this patch and get to know one anther again.
My daughter is now 18 a mother and married and is disgusted with herself that she did that to me but I forgave her as my only concern was why she had doesn’t it not the consequence of how it affected me. We call each other everyday and get on great.
good luck
