My reaction isn't listed in the poll. I would smile at the parent and give him/her a thumbs up, and possibly make some type of supportive comment. In fact, I've actually done this a few times.

I wouldn't say anything as I have one. It looks like a bear (but Nihcole call sit her monkey shhhh). She thinks its funny and laughs when we use it. Of course I call it a leash cuz I think its funny myself. I always said I would NEVER use one till I had a very independent 14 month old at the airport in the middle of the night in Las Vegas for 6 hours. It was so nice!!

I have never used one. That might be easier than a stoller though.

I'd like to hear from the men.

I was talking to a friend/acquaintenance of mine and he said that if I brought Oliver to the coffee shop we frequent that I might get a lot of bad words.

the only reactions I have ever gotten for it were smiles and giggles and I need on of them comments!! lol
I don't use it often though, may 3 times since she was 14 months old.

Default Re: Toddler Harnesses

I would mind my own business...I disapprove of kid leashes. I have seen two occasions where I could agree they were necessary. My cousin son with CP. He's as big and strong as a 5 yo but has the mental capacity of a 2yo(maybe younger). I also saw a mom with twin girls waiting for the bus on a busy street.
