I've been very tempted to get a leash for the kids...but refrained. I don't have a problem with people who do, so long as they *don't* use it as a substitute for good parenting. When we take our kids to the mall (not very often), it is a chore, to be sure. They tend to want to run around, and play, and shout, and...well...be kids. So we have to train them how they are supposed to act in the mall. That's, like...our job, or something.
