I don't see too many harnesses in use where I live, but have seen it ocasionally. I think it's good if it works for the family that is using it.

My boys are now 8 and 11, and even living in the small town that I do, I feel uncomfortable if they get outside my field of vision in a store or public place.

I did not use one, but would agree that they are probably good tools in the right hands.

PS Zxello - My parents may have been better off using one, and I would not have darted out in front of that car when I did. Thank goodness for good brakes, quick reflexes, and an alert driver. I suffered minor scrapes and bruising.

On the subject of "animilization" of children. (is that the opposite of personification?) Who here has not in their childhood played a good old game of "let's all pretend we are dogs","cats","bunnies","farm animals" etc.
