For both the child and the parent that decided to use it.

Too busy texting and walking
Ive noticed parents are too busy to watch their kids play at the park. Always on their phone.

All children are different. I have 4. We used the leash on 1 out of 4. He was very strong minded with a difficult personality. It worked for him. He felt like he was free, although he was not. Holding him or holding his hand would result in extremely terrible tantrums. It was either that, stay home, or have a safety issue. People should not be so quick to judge. It had nothing to do with parenting and all to do with personality. My other 3 were fine and complied with staying close and holding hands and such. Anyways, that is just my experience. And he is 6 now and fine. We used it when he was 2 and 3.

This. Our kids have at different points not wanted to hold our hands...but as their PARENTS we do not make that optional or up to the kid. You hold our hand, sit in your stroller, are held, or there are consequences. I don't leave those decisions up to my children.
All the leash does is prevent you as a PARENT from actually parenting your child. You are letting them get away with the behavior you are trying to stop. Look at it this way -- if they are on a leash and start to run off, sure you can catch him, but you haven't corrected the root problem -- the kid running off.
