Child Leash: should I get one? Opinions wanted

As most of you know, I'm going on a trip, in 2 days. And as most of you know, airports can get busy.

So I was wondering, should I get a leash for my 2 year old? I don't want to lose her at the airport while I'm trying to check in or while I'm tying my shoe or something like that.

I won't use it other than being at the airport.

With all these missing kids, a leash seems like a good idea.








Anywhozzils I just wanted your opinion.

Thanks!

Sarah

I HATE the strap around the body kid leashes. The wrist leashes I understand.

Just my opinion.

Oh, if I ever get married again I do plan on using a Husband Leash.

mudweiser agrees: Thanks for your opinion Judy. By the way, I think those Husband leashes come with a choker.

there are the best thing since sliced bread!

go for it..

there is also a tracker device you can get..sounds bad,but really helpful..

its a little button that you attach to the child (child proof) you have one too,and you can set the distance from each device,example 2 feet..when your child goes beyond this it alarms...handy for near pool ect..get the lease get the alarm get everything,you can never too to cautious or too carefull with a small child.

i know it sounds over the top,but with so many child abductions better safe then sorry.

Yes yes and yes.

They have got to be one of the best inventions.
The child feels as if they have their freedom, but you have full control of them at all times.

A MUST have for any active child.

I think they are excellent! I wish they had those when I was a kid. My mom just used my ponytail....

They have so many cute styles like the picture shows that you can have your two year old pick out which one she wants. Then she'll be likely to be quite happy to wear it.

JudyKayTee agrees: Laughing - yes, my mother also guided me around by MY ponytail!

Thanks guys!

I'm more worried about someone grabbing her when I'm in the middle of looking for something.. airports can get hectic.

Thanks again!

I'll be looking for one today!

I used a harness on my little one until they came out with the wrist types. But either way I would do it and not just at the airport. In malls, stores, anywhere curious tots will wander while your attention may be directed elsewhere.

Hmm well I saw one at Wal-mart. It's a backpack AND a harness. I'm pretty sure I'll get that one. She can put her snacks and things in the backpack. I'm sure she'll enjoy it.

I'd rather risk evil glances than a lost child.

i smile at the parents who use the harnesses. and save the evil glances for the parent's who don't even realize there child is running around wreaking havoc...
