What are your thoughts about kid leashes/harnesses?

Agreed.
My husband grew up in a little harbor town on Lake Michigan. His parents had a sailboat. They put the leash on him anytime they were at the dock when he was small, because whenever he fell in, they could just yank him back out again.

Useful. And funny.

Actually, I worked on a sailboat. In bad weather, we required all the staff and students to wear a harness and clip into the ship.

They were like leashes for big people.

This visual is cracking me up, actually.

I love them for going to really crowded places like Disneyland. My kids have a bit of freeedom and don't have to hold my hand (sometimes they just won't do it). But I don't use them for the park or grocrey store or the mall.

I'd rather have my kid on a leash than hit by a car. My toddler is fast, and I have arthritis - can't dash after her as quick as I'd like.

the only time/place i would use them is with a very independent walker (too big to be worn) like a 3-5 year old in a HUGE crowd like disneyland.... and then i would probably use the one that attached to the wrist. i had one when i was little for this reason. it's kinda hard to snatch/lose your kid when you are attached at the wrist.
