First time seeing it... at a car show last weekend.

They really get offended when you ask if the kid is a rescue.
If they are on a leash, perhaps they shouldn't have been taken there in the first place.
Jeff, truer words were never spoken. You earned another promote.
Mom had a harness and leash for my little brother, back in the late 60's.
Can you get one of those with a shock collar attachment?
Now that is funny
Hey, I threatened my Grandson with the shock collar treatment last week (and he's 17).
Thanks Mark but I must respectively decline. I can hardly afford the monthly dues for the last promote that you graced me.
In the early to mid 60's I had a aunt that lived in kalifornia I seen her maybe 5 or 6 times my entire life
Any way my younger brother RIP
He Was about 5 or 6 at the time when she visited once when ever she got back home she sent my mom a leash and harness for mom to put on him
I was just a kid but mom was mad I mean MAD lol she told her sister what she could do with her leash
i wore one in the early 50's. didn't leave much of a mark.
I think it is a fantastic idea - especially for those "children" that do the drive by shootings in Chicago.
Our oldest son liked his when he was three or so. He could walk like a big person and not have to hold on to a hand or be carried like a baby.
Saw it as a mark of being a "big kid."
Number two son saw things differently. He liked holding on to a hand so he could drag us where he wanted to go🙄
I have seen many kids that should have had a leash and some that needed a cattle * interdiction
As for me it was a leather belt by dad and what ever mom could get Hans on at the time that made me tow the line. Well sorta of lol
i was known as a runner back in the 60's,,surprised i didnt have muzzle too 😎
my mom used to tie my sister to the clotheline when she was hanging the laundry, just to keep her from running out in the street, and back then, 70 years ago, what maybe two or three cars a day went by, I still tease my sister about that........
Same here. My mother used it when we were camping as I had a habit of wondering away and getting into things I should not have been into.
We had our younger one leashed in a store when she was three or so. Some lady came up to us and was livid that our girl was not a dog. I replied, "She isn't kidnapped or dead in the street, either."
Some kids are "runners" but ALL kids can disappear from sight in an instant. A harness and leash are often the best thing a parent can use.
Seeing kids on leashes never bothered me. I kind of felt the parents were doing a fine job keeping little Johnny safe and under control.
What did strike my funny bone was the first time I saw someone with their CAT on a leash!
Mom and Dad used a belt and leash across my behind and in the long run that worked. (and sometimes I made a long run when they turned me loose)
Also never heard mention of Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)in those days even in school.
Belts and paddles laid to the rear end hot and heavy cured ADD fast and lots of other things.
I just hope all of them have had their shots. Showed a rental yrs ago and the child crawled under the cabinets in the kitchen.. then... when we all went outside the little brat bit my leg like a dog. Told the parents bluntly... not interested you cannot control your child.
I know a lot of people look at this with disdain but a small child can easily get away in a large crown of people. A child on a leash is a lot better than a child lost and parents screaming and in a panic searching for the child.
Really insightful. The crowd that would rather beat the * out of their kids instead of keep track of them.
...Didnt see where anyone beat the s* out of any kid...its called "discipline" ...something all kids need or they turn out like a lot of these heathens running around now...a lot of the time "a stern talking to", "time out" doesnt cut it..."I dont know why he turned out like he did Officer, I always used stern language with him", yeah, Ok...
sometimes the whoopin comes from being kept an eye on, thats how they got caught.
