    I would rather see a child on a harness than see all of these toddlers running around parking lots and in front of cars because their parents couldn't keep hold of their hand.

    Thanks for an unbiased view. As a mother of 4 boys (2 with disabilities) I hate how judgmental people are. I watched my kids like a hawk, but I was outnumbered and my autistic son was basically a wizard at getting way from the group in the time it took to blink.

    I had a backpack leash as a child. I stayed safe, and I definitely needed it. I'll do it with my children if necessary.

    My mom used these on me when I was young. I’m 25 now. When I was older 6/7 years old I was always getting lost in the store but I knew to go up customer service and have them call my mom. Just do what’s best for your sanity and your child’s safety. Who cares what others think.

    My son was very hyper active and we had to use the back pack type and the hand type or he may not have survived childhood . Later on he was diagnosed with ADHD. We never had any problems with him getting tangled up in them because we watched him constantly all the time and only used them while out in public or vacation then took them off at home or indoors .

      My son was & is still is very hyper active diagnosed w/ADHD & I would have love this they don’t like to hold hands they want to do them . It’s very hard to deal w/ADHD child on top of people criticizing your parenting skills & judging & looks it’s awful my baby went thru a hard childhood he has no friends he is 20 yr old & doesn’t come out still stay home w/no friends & this hurts so so much .

    I thought they were crazy until my son walked away from us in a crowded restaurant in disney world. That was a terrifying 20 minutes.

      @@nonophat I did. I was trying so hard not to cry. There was an asian attendant just outside the restaurant and some british tourists were trying to push english on him for something that actually had nothing to do with Disney. I told them excuse me for a moment and did charades for him to understand because he didnt speak English. They called me rude, some other stuff, and that the attendant must speak english if he understood my charades. They guy caught on that I spoke about a child and indicated to me that he didnt see a child come outside. It turned out he was on the upper level and just watched my mom and I go crazy looking and screaming for him. The good thing is he will fight against strangers, he wont allow anyone but my mom and I to touch him, but still. That was a horrible setting to be in. Since then I'm all about the child leash. Whatever safety measure it takes to keep them close by

  • @lenax9798

    As a disabled person who wouldn't be able to run after a child, I'd use them in the future if I have kids.
    People seem to forget that nor every child is as well behaved, no matter how many rules they have to follow or how much you punish them. It doesn't matter if you teach them to go to customer service desk, not all kids will.
    Also, some single parents can't look after a child every second they are outside. It takes one second for a kid to think they can ignore your rules and wander off.
    Also not all parents are capable of carrying their child, lifting their child or running after them.
    So it may look cruel but think of it, cats, dogs and young children have the same mentality. We leach dogs so they don't run off. We leach cats so they don't run off. Why not leach kids till they grow old enough to understand that their behavior is not okay?

    I used to think they looked crazy...until I had a child of my own. I've never used one, but we haven't went anywhere since the start of the pandemic either. But I'm so scared of someone grabbing him or me looking away for a second and losing him.

  • @MichelleCallahan
    @MichelleCallahan 2 роки тому +5

    My solid consensus is they should be used unless your kid is perfect and doesn't want to touch me with sticky or wet hands and you picked a foolproof meeting spot if you guys got separated. Cause that's really on your parenting skills not on me going about my day.

    • @laurab6165
      @laurab6165 2 роки тому +4

      Thank you for supporting it honestly, and we use them more to prevent someone from snatching our child in a crowded area than to prevent the kid from running away. They're not called leashes, they're called anti-child loss harnesses, and for good reason.

  • @sarahhavillamelooliveira5825
    @sarahhavillamelooliveira5825 Рік тому +1

    It lets both the kid and the parent to have ice cream with both hands, walking side by side woth some autonomy and no running away into danger happening. A win in my book.

  • @theonionqueen3519

    I was a leash child, as I had a tendency to wander. I loved my leash backpack. It gave me more room to explore, without having to hold my mom’s hand, but it also kept me safe. It was Elmo themed, too!

  • @justanothermomsamanthagh5191

    I can't lift my son because of my hernias. I've stopped using it now because he knows to stay on the sidewalk, but I used it so he wouldn't jump out into traffic. You need to watch them of course to make sure they don't get tangled up. His brother was almost kidnapped at a mall once so I see leashes as a positive. Also my Nana used to put an arm leash on me when I was between 5 and 7 when she took us to really crowded places like the amusement park. As long as the child knows not to pull on it and the parent knows not to pull on it, nobody should be hurt

  • @ixiepeach6787
    @ixiepeach6787 Рік тому

    I’m a mother nor am I an adult, but these child leaches seem like a good idea if you’re walking a lot of kids or if you’re in a crowded place and don’t want your kid running away to potentially be kidnapped by someone.

  • @alexiapesina4269
    @alexiapesina4269 10 місяців тому

    I honestly feel like it isn’t right for people to get upset about this because it’s “not safe” every single thing on this planet is unsafe if you are not monitoring your child correctly I.E letting them play with it by themselves or just flat out not watching them which is the fault of the parent and not the leash since they should never have one one with you not watching them in the first place. In my opinion having them as an option is always going to be safer than not no matter what.

  • @OrangeSpaceNewt
    @OrangeSpaceNewt 8 місяців тому

    As a former undiagnosed nd kid, one of these kept me safe because I'd have probably gotten lost in a mall and probably abducted. I hated this but better the leash than not being able to go home.

  • @javiervelez892
    @javiervelez892 10 місяців тому

    Kids get lost all the time or run to the path of danger. The same people that hate these kinds of things are the same that let their kids do whatever they want. Or they have never been parents and don’t know how easy children run away.

  • @lgould4107

  • @Girl95szia
    @Girl95szia 6 місяців тому

    Why is it hard to hold the childs hand? Thats like a natural leash. Also half of these parents are not even paying attention to their kid as they just roam around? This must be a cultural thing, because I never see any of these here in the EU, but it's common semse that we hold childrens hand if we are not in a safe situation. Can someone explain?

  • @rissarys25
    @rissarys25 2 роки тому

    I was completely against these until I saw a reality show with a couple that had like 4 or 5 toddler and a couple of older kids. The dad took them out alone and I suddenly felt his anxiety and fear of one of them running away or getting lost. I don't see the purpose if you only have one or two children to watch. However, when you're outnumbered 5 to 1, I say go for it.

  • @wunclerlaufenbumcorneliusu7047

    Antinatalist 20/30 year olds talk the most crap about kids/parenthood when they're only legacy are cats and dogs and video games.
    Toddlers kid get into stuff because their curious. Backpack leashes just help mediate that curiosity

    And anyways when your kids are in daycare and they have a special outing out comes the rope. And two people supervising minimum one in front one in the back and usually one on the side where the cars are at looking out for any one not clutching the rope. Lol id rather have kids be safe then dead. Especially handy if your a single parent.

    Children had 'leading strings' sewn onto their clothes for centuries. Then, they were removed when the child grew up. Thus, the principle behind backback leases is not something new.

    personally, i think they’re fine for when you’re in a crowded place or a large place where kids could easily get lost or just get away because they’re always escape artists and running away. but i don’t think that the parent should jerk their child around on it, i just think they are obviously helpful for keeping your child close and also attached to you in a way in case of a bad actor.

  • @saraandstuartshannon2160
    @saraandstuartshannon2160 Рік тому

    Children should be brought up, not leashed. In my opinion, this is a complete negligence on parents side and lack of parenting. Everything takes time, patience and sacrifices, including teaching children how to walk side by side with their parents. Some kids are easier, some are more challenging but they all have to learn. Personally, I find the leash humiliating even for dogs, no need to even mention humans.

    • @lenax9798
      @lenax9798 2 роки тому +2

      Sure there are bad parents out there but you do realize that it literally takes like 5 seconds for your kid to disappear. My now 17yr old brother walked away from my dad when they were doing groceries. He was one and a half and my dad told him to stay put while he payed. He looked down and boom, child gone. My brother had decided he wasn't in the mood to wait and went home by himself. We were lucky that 1) there were no major roads he had to cross, 2) he knew the way and 3) someone saw him and stopped him till my dad came running in a panic. Saying that people aren't allowed to be parents unless they have their eyes glued on the child 24/7 is really bad. It takes literally you looking away for a minute to grab a pack of meat and child is gone. Wandered off to Gods knows where.
      Or kidnapped. Because that happens too. It takes a lollipop or a chocolate bar to lure the kid and walk off with them like nothing is going on. And by the time you notice your baby is gone, they are 3 block away.
      And don't you dare to say "well, you need to teach your kids not to run off or go with strangers" or "well you need to hold their hand"... Sure, lemme lift a box of 24 bottles into the cart with one hand.
      No matter how good the parent is, sometimes and in some areas these things are a must if you want to keep your baby.

    I have 4 daughters & I never ever had to put a leash on any of them . It’s ridiculous to have to put one on your child to be able to gain control of them. Put the phones down & actually pay close attention to your children & you wouldn’t need to put a leash on your child !!!

    • @mckenzie5550
      @mckenzie5550 7 місяців тому

      I have a 3 year old who has autism. He LOVES wheels/cars so anytime we go somewhere he wants to run around the parking lot, he’s quick, & getting pretty heavy, & doesn’t always want to hold my hand. Accidents happen & they happen in a blink of an eye. He doesn’t understand the danger. I’ve been thinking about getting a harness for his safety. Just thought I’d share so you could maybe see this from another perspective. Have a good day 🙂
