Why is this such a big deal? I see people on the web freaking out about it, and maybe it's because I don't have kids, but I don't see why it is so horrific on toddlers and such. The child has more freedom to move about then when strapped into a stroller, being held, or having their hand held. Kids move fast, even if the parent is paying attention, and it can be especially bad in a crowd. I'd rather see a kid on a leash than darting into traffic, getting lost, running up to strange animals and getting injured, etc.
I mean, I suppose it can be considered a "convenience item"--something that is not necessary but makes the parents' life easier, but so could say, sippy cups, and you don't see all that much sippy cup hate out there--lol....
Sooooo, maybe I'm missing something about the evils of leashed kids??
