I've never really seen that tbh anyway. Annoying kids are walking around at the supermarket, at the IKEA, at the grocery stores, that's fine. Nothing says freedom like getting tugged around. It's often hard for a non-parent to realise the age differences, and what they're capable of, between a toddler and a kid. I'm talking about toddlers. Kids walking around a supermarket is fine and don't really need to be restrained after 3 or 4. We're talking about when the kid is not old enough, like around 2, but wants to walk around and not be in the stroller. @ 'nothing says freedom like', try some basic reading comprehension. I cbf replying to the rest of your points (though I completely disagree), as I'm sure you won't change your mind and I've already tried my best to put up rational opposition to the guys with leash-complexes in this thread. | ||

I was an awfully "independent" toddler. When my mother would take me to the mall, I loved to hide everywhere and explore nooks and crannies. My younger brother was WORSE than me, being the type to not only explore, but sprint to wherever he was going, regardless of traffic, human or vehicular. I, myself, had to rescue Nathan multiple times from certain doom. We each had harnesses; mine was blue and his was teal, and they had sweet teddy bears stitched into the front. And you know what? We loved those things. We didn't have to sit tied up in the stroller anymore when we went to the mall (which drove Nathan especially crazy). After our irresponsible phase (age 4, maybe a little later for Nathan) we ditched them. The other 2 children in my family, brother and sister, didn't need them after us because they weren't quite so free spirited about exploration. Anecdotal evidence, etc etc. My parents only used them at the mall or fairs or other very crowded places. Never a corner store or Wally World. | ||

Leashes are for dogs. ....aaaand thanks to today's cool gadgets, you actually CAN track your spawn super easily with this: http://www.thetileapp.com/ Get one quickly, shit's gonna be in limited supply with the tens of thousands and thousands of pre orders stacking up. There's probably similar crap already out there on the market. | ||

But seriously, in my experience, both as a child who was so inhumanely harnessed and as an inside observer of many other families who practice this, the children are only harnessed if a) they've shown a penchant for wondering/running/exploring b) are about 3, no more than 4, years old and c) are being taken to very crowded venues such as malls or theme parks.

Nice anecdote; my mom always likes telling the story of how she came over from Hong Kong all by herself pregnant with my sister and pushing me in a stroller crying to be held, while my brother was tethered to her leg as he was running around like a banshee. I really don't remember that much from those years but all three of us have the baby forehead scars to show we all required stitches from running headfirst into something.

I'm sure by then MSpaint will be touch-control only and in 3D holographic animated gifs.
