A few years ago while boarding a flight to CA my little baby nail scissors was confiscated. They were in my makeup case in my carry on luggage. While waiting to board our flight I saw 2 women knitting with very large pointed knitting needles. I think those needles could do much more damage than my little scissors. I had the scissors since my oldest son was born, who at the time was 50 years old. My baby's scissors and they took them! Boo Hoo:cry: May in Jersey
