Do you happen to have one of those eyelash curlers? I "cut" my eyelashes
with my moms when I was little (7?) I thought that's what it was used
for. I just pressed it together really hard and then kind of pulled or
something, I remember it hurt a lot so I didn't do the second eye... I
don't remember if my mom noticed or not but I'm sure I didn't tell her
the truth because I thought she'd be mad at me for taking her eyelash
curler.
I also cut off my fringe once, just in one place because I kind of
realized it was stupid and well, my mom wasn't too thrilled, and I might
have cut my eyelashes with a pair of small curved scissors. And please,
let's not forget painting my fingernails with "tipp-ex" (whiteout),
eating dry dog food, making "soup" with my greatgrandmothers laundry
soap in her (very very) old fa****oned wa****ng "machine" (I can't even
remember how it worked, it was just a big vat you poured water into and
I think it had a heater or something and she had a separate "spinner" or
something. It was ages ago and we didn't play there often (I wonder why
;-) )
So yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about it but maybe tell her that
scissors near the eyes is not good and that you can _really_ hurt
yourself and others with them.
