Yesterday, while driving me and mom saw a woman with her child on one of those "leashes". We talked about how they should have better control over their kids and stuff like that. So basically;
What are your thoughts on them? Do you use them? Do you think it's cruel? A good idea?
If your kid's running around licking people, hitting stuff, running away, laying down in the middle of the road, being loud when I'm trying to read or being annoying as hell in public, than put the leash on them and tell them it doesn't come off until they stop acting their age.

Hmm so you're pro-leash? I suppose they should until they smarten up, but what about when they're like running away and the parent just stands still? You know it happens. And there's some pictures on Google of some people with like 2-3 kids, like dogs.
Its cruel,its saying "My mother treats me like a dog and puts me on a leash,while she's at it she always takes me outside in the backyard so i can take a ****,and she lets me eat out of a bowl on the floor instead of at the tabel,then i just go sleep on the rough carpeting instead of in a bed."
Just ********,if you had a kid that listened to you,you wouldn't need it now.Blame the parent,not the kid.

You have a good point. It all has to do with the way the kid is brought up, if they're are bad it could be the parents fault. 80% it is.
If you say "act your age" to somebody who is acting like a child, you should be allowed to say "stop acting your age" to a child that you want to shut the hell up.

I'm pro-leash as a punishment, no other reason.
If they're running away and the parents are just standing there, the parents are idiots.
And if there are 2-3 kids acting like brats, then you have 2-3 kids on leashes.

True, like someone else said. I should be a training tool. Not punishment as much, but still punishment at the same time.
A small child can't be told 'act your age' because it's common for children that age to act up. If you tell a small child
to act older, will they understand how to act like an adult?
I just thought it was a clever way to tell them to behave?
It's a sign of bad parenting. Embarrassing for the kid and the mother/father alike.
And the kid running around licking people and eating out of trash bins isn't embarrasing?
On a side note I just thought of some more punishments
A: Physical punishment
B: Playing their video games/playing with their toys... And making them watch
C: Eating ice cream and saying "yum this is so good do you want some? oh wait you broke the lamp! haha no ice cream for you!"
I think it's better than what my dad use to do to guide me around when I was younger, he use to take his hand and pinch both sides of my neck and guide me around that way and I don't think I was ever one of those kids that ran around everywhere, he did this until I was probably 10. Ever since, I tense up whenever someone touches my neck.

Ice cream one is cruel :/
But I'd rather holding my child's hand and keeping him under control my self then a leash.

It's cruel, yes.
As I said, the leash isn't to keep them under control, it's to punish and humiliate them for breaking one of the rules you have in place for them when they go into public (breaking a rule three times, you get the leash... Breaking two and then saying "haha you can't put the leash on me" also gets you the leash you smart ass.)
Only if the child is a danger to themselves or others.
Even though 95% of the time its the parent's fault there are some instances where it isn't their fault (maybe some sort of mental disability).

But then again, they could hurt themselves on it to. Try to run and getting clothes lined when the parents doesn't move?

I think there is a slight difference between getting pulled back and falling over and getting hit by a car. I would rather my child to fall over to avoid getting hit by a car.

Also , you double posted.
So did I.

And it seems everyone blames parents, but I agree with that.

You heard that, green and red.

Okay.
But if your snot nosed brat runs into me and makes me drop my Dr Pepper, you're buying me a new one.
