Every parent must do whats right for them and their children and every situation is completely different. It is very easy to pass judgement on others situations when not knowing anything about it. I wouldn't be bothered by her looks or any other comments you may receive if you feel like you are doing the best thing for your child.

That being said, I am not one for harnesses. I believe it takes away from a discipline that the child should be receiving from the parent. Its kinda like using a tv to babysit. Yes children will get into trouble without the harness, but thats parting of the growing pains of being a parent. Use these situations to teach and help the kid grow up to be respectful of their surroundings. If they are on a harness or leesh when they are younger, they have not learned these important lessons and will be even more difficult to control as they get older.
