i'm afraid not allowing my daughter to give a sharp object for i am not ready to see what might gonna happen to her. Whenever she gets secretly, i rather snatch it from her even she will cry trying to get back the sharp object, i just give a replacement or any toy that will relieve her.

When my kids were little, I child proofed the house. That meant all sharp items were out of reach of little hands. If they did get hold of something sharp, I definatly did not "grab" it out of their hands as I would be afraid of injuring them. I stayed calm and asked them to give it to me as it could hurt them. If they did not want to give it to me, I offered something for a trade, like a toy or a treat. That usually worked.

It will make your life a lot more stress free! It is so much better to enjoy the children instead of running after them keeping them safe! Keep up the good work!

I certainly would not let any child get a hold of a sharp object! Even after they are a bit older like 7 or 8 and have safety scissors they would probably still need supervision!
DO NOT let any child hold a sharp object! If they somehow DO get a hold of a sharp object, take it away as quickly as possible and nevermind their crying and fits! It is for their own safety.
