Ds has recently changed schools and been given a locker. Now he's not the least forgetful kid in the world, and has a habit of loosing things out of pockets. So until I could buy him one of those springy/retractable keyring things, I slipped the key onto a kilt pin and attached it around one of his belt loops, so he'd not loose it and know where it is. Skip forward to the next night, he comes in from school and starts looking for something in his bag. "What have you lost?" I ask. To which he replies "My locker key." It transpires a teacher has confiscated his kilt pin as it's, and I quote "an offensive weapon"... I mean? SERIOUSLY! Are they going to start removing sharpened pencils soon too?

AIBU to think a kilt pin is NOT an "offensive weapon"?
