What are your thoughts on baby leashes?
My son just turned one and he's walking everywhere. He prefers to walk than sit in his stroller. I was thinking about getting a cute little monkey back pack leash for when we go to big places like the mall, zoo, aquarium, and so forth.
But I'm still on the fence about it.

My step daughters 3 and we are getting her one I have a newborn and she likes to run off , my boyfriend works alot so it would just be me and the kids at the mall and I can't just leave my baby sit whenever she wants to run off and I'd rather look crazy for having a child on a leash then running and chasing one with a stroller
I think they're a good idea for like huge events like fairs or other things where kids could easily get lost in a crowd or something.
I think in a super crowded place you could if you feel comfortable with it like @klachappelle said
I always said I would NEVER... But at the rate that kids are being kidnapped going missing... I'd like my child to be safe. If my child is independent and wants to walk around and be pushed around I'm going to get one. Especially being a single mom you don't have eyes at the back of your head. Imagine trips to the store and your hands are full and there isn't anyone to hold your child's hand...
I have used one before. We went to a huge state fair, and my daughter was about 18 months and very much in the independent stage. We brought the stroller but knew she wouldn't last long in that because she loved walking around and exploring so we bought a backpack harness so she could do her thing but at a safe distance. We had a great day and she got to explore and she wasn't miserable. Use your own judgement when it comes to things like this. I would rather have my toddler safe then be in a panic because they let go of my hand and ran off. Also, I wouldn't ever use it at a place like a park, you bring your kids there to run around..that's the point but for a very crowded place like the fair I think it's completely ok!
i personally would never use one. i dont think its right to put your child on a "leash" but that is just my opinion.
Honestly people say they are bad to put on your kid because its a "leash" well those are the dumb ones getting their kids kidnapped because their kid ran off and the parents can't find them. I'd rather be safe than sorry now a days. To me its a great concept because it gives your child the ability to have free run but they have a limit because you have the end of the "leash". Its like if you know your kid is wild and can't be in a stroller then why not take precaution and give your child some freedom and let them run around with a controlled amount of range.
