In theory, I think it is a good idea. This little contraption allows toddlers to have a bit of freedom.. and independance, but you can keep control... That is unless you are PWT.. and see this as a leash.
Case in point, I was at SFO waiting for my sister at the airport, when 2 PWT "ladies" came to the gate. I assume they were waiting for Pa, or baby daddy.. but that isn't important. They came along with a little baby.. no more then 2, walking behind. I initially thought it was clever.
But then things went horribly wrong. I don't have kids, but know enough not to antagonize babies .. You could tell the boy was bored and getting ancy.. Rather then address him on a level he could understand.. they yelled athim .. and told him to behave... His mood went from happy to incredibly upset in a blink of an eye. It was obvious to me that this happened because the evil ladies were ticked off and not tending to the baby....
All of a sudden, the boy dropped to the ground.. he was done.. he had hit his little limit.. these ladies started DRAGGING this baby as he screamed. He wasn't happy. It was late.. and these women were obviously annoyed. I wanted to go over and hold the poor boy. I said to the person next to me, "that poor baby".. my neighbor assumed the baby had ADD or something.. HUH? What do you do? When do you step in? I am not a fan of the hillbilly leash anymore..
FYI, when she first arrived, I asked them where they got the thing.. they replied.. "waaaaalmart" .. I wasn't surprised. Some people should NOT breed.

I completely agree with you. NOT EVERYONE SHOULD BREED!!! I've seen many examples up here to prove your point.
