Using a harness was a win-win situation, and made the trip enjoyable for both of us, not a power struggle. AND, since we were moving from the US to Germany for three years, I couldn't very well just NOT take him out with me. LOL
thats how we were as well

Why would I aquash independence? I think its great that she is so independent and wants to do things herself. Of course I do get sick of "I do it myself" 100 times a day, but in the end its great that she wants to be that way. I think strollers are great in a few situations just as I do harnesses. I think parents over use strollers and should be holding their children more
