Anyone who would comment to you, like that woman, is a complete idiot. I can't imagine presuming to comment on any other parent unless someone or some kid was in the process of being hurt or at risk of being hurt.

Some kids have extreme high energy levels. My kids are high energy - but not quite extreme. I love little kids, but let's face it - as Bill Cosby says, they are all brain damaged! They need to be protected from themselves. Some high energy kids need these devices. You physically can't watch them every single second. I saw a kid a couple years back - the dad bent over to pick up an item to put it from the cart to the belt and ZOOM! The little hyper tyke bolted - straight out the door and into parkinglot traffic. It happened in a blink of the eye - the dad didn't even see it. He wasn't a bad dad - the kid was a typical high energy brain damaged hypoid (love the kids, but let's face facts). I can see where the harness would be the only real option for kids like this.
