Let's take a second to talk about the kid leash:

For parent's who love their children - but not THAT much. It says to your child, "let's keep this professional." As well as, "I want to keep an eye on you but don't want to touch you." And who could blame you? Kids are FULL of boogers, poop, spit, and germs!

It's like a dog; they see something shiny that distracts them and when you're ready to move on just give 'em alittle tug.

All in all I'm not a hater and wouldn't doubt that I'd get one in the future. Just like the animal print visor and fanny pack I picked up in Florida - an ironic purchase that became quite real and handy.
