Good Points
Well, I guess I was able to get on my plane to get back home.
Bad Points
They way the security staff treated me.
General Comments
At Paris Airport the security staff were aggressive to me. I was with 2 children and a grumpy looking security guy gestured rudely to my gold bracelet. I couldn't get my bracelet off with the other free hand as it requires help. I asked if it was necessary as I simply could not do it and the guy became extremely unpleasant, talking to me in French, and then really putting me through the mill. I had to take my shoes off (not an issue for me ever, I prefer safe planes) but then he called over a female and told her in French I was a problem and they then subjected me to a search. Several members of security surrounded me and glared at me. The kids were very frightened. This rudeness and aggression should not be allowed, especially towards a mother with 2 kids. I willingly cooperate with all security and I was not rude. I would never travel to Paris again, unless 150% necessary!
