Why aren't my dependents showing up on my state tax return?

Married and filing jointly. We claim our two children as dependents on our federal return, but when I look at my NC state tax return, it lists 0 under dependents. Anyone know if there's a reason for this or if it's a glitch in TurboTax?

 There is no personal exemption in North Carolina for filers, spouses or dependents.

Thanks, SweetieJean, so the second chart seems to say that I should be able to take a deduction for each child. I have them entered in my federal tax return information, but it's not transferring them over to my NC state tax return.
