At what age do you let your child....

Play with an exacto knife unattended?

They still won't let me play with sharp objects!

Stop running with scissors and maybe they will let you.

Over-protective.

I've never run with scissors... I just stabbed myself with an oyster knife and had to have nerve repair surgery so that I could feel my fingers again. They cut me off of sharp objects then.... D**N them!!

Actually, it worked out well, because I always have someone to carve the ham or turkey!!

Be sure to use a chainsaw!

I just need to feel validated with what I did I guess. The parents of these kids have a history of selling drugs, using drugs, assault animal cruelty/abuse and such, I currently have a peace order against the male of the house. I just can't wait to move.

Myth busted.

I ran with scissors all the time and NEVER hurt myself. I hurt myself riding a tenspeed bike and hitting drainage grates (without a helmet).

growing up I knew a girl that was running with a set of grass clippers in her hand, she fell and ran them all the way through her stomach.
she ended up ok, but it was a long recovery for her.

Well, I ran with those elementary school scissors, you know, the ones that didn't cut anything and were rounded at the tips.

Yes, you did!!

Have the parents contacted you again?

No, they know they were in the wrong. I am learning to not second guess myself.

NEVER second guess your instincts to protect your child.

I used to carry a buck knife in my purse.

Now you just tuck it in the sweet spot of your bra, huh?
