I suggest http://www.duotrope.com or http://www.ralan.com for listing of many different publishers that accept stories.
However, prepare your daughter for the fact that she will most likely receive many, many, MANY rejections before she becomes published. If that would discourage her to write, I’d say wait until she’s a little older and has more experience. Trust me, no matter how far a 14-year-old has come in her writing, the chances that she’ll have written publishable material is low. I know. Been there, done that, wasted my money on the frakin’ T-shirt.
Remember, publishers want to publish stories that will please their subscribers, so the subscribers keep subscribing and the magazine keeps on existing. Even so, money goes to the writer and never away from her. If a publisher asks for money to publish your daughter’s work, run far, far away. Remember the basic rule: MONEY GOES TOWARD THE WRITER, NOT AWAY.
I wish you and your daughter good luck.
