[blparent] trimming babies' nails

[sharon howerton]

Angela, this may sound crude, but when my sons were babies, and they are now 
26 and 23 years of age, I just bit off the long nails or used a simple emery 
board. Their nails are very soft and very sharp. My rule was about babies 
and still is in general the simpler the better.
