What is the wierdest thing

[sockgirl77]

A 2 year old and a 4 year old. I'm sure you do many things that other people find rediculous. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's wrong.

It's wrong in my book and the last I checked, we were allowed to voice our opinion in this forum.

Any parent that needs a harness to control there child is worthless.

And that's exactly what I was doing.

I'm not freaking out. I just think that it is ridiculous. Do you have kids?

Yes. Kids: The ultimate pets!

And I will be obtaining a harness before she's one. Why go through the hassle of strollers when the kid can get off their lazy butt and walk? Why carry one if I don't have to? And leashes are cheaper than double strollers and easier to push.

Why is it rediculous if it works? Especially if it's easier to deal with than a damn humongo stroller?

Even if a teacher says the kid has ADD?

My sister's Yorkie is with pups. I want one but I don't want to make Rufus feel unloved. He can not take it when I play with other doggies and I've always wanted a teeny-weeny-doggy-woggy so I can predict the future on what the atmosphere would be. Can't do that to him.

How does one use a teeny weeny doggie to predict what the atmosphere will be? Throw them up and if they if they come down wet its raining? If they don't come back down it's really windy.

Shh! The panel of experts isn't done.

The law says I'm not allowed to use death threats, duct tape or 2X4's anymore

I don't think it's any worse than strapping them into a child seat in a car.

Just because you use harnasses on your "pets" doesn't mean that are good for your child

We used a stroller at the fair but we used a harness on the cruise ship last spring. Too many places on the ship it was impossible to get a stroller through effectively. And there was no way in hell I was going to carry him all day long so he'd be awake all night.

Now you know damn well that Smooth has ADD and I bet his mother never pulled him on a leash.

A stroller is just a straitjacket with wheels.

OMG you must be such a bad parent!!! Oh the humanity!!!!

My parents put a shock collar on me, when I didn't listen they would shock me until I peed my pants and drolled all over myself.

My kids actually listen to me

Exactly, they have more freedom on a leash.
Plus if you can get about six or more they could pull you on a wagon like a sled team.
Mush you toddlers, mush, I say.

We were in Alaska. Ain't no way I was gonna lose him a few thousand miles away from home. Or have him climb over a rail into iceberg strewn waters. Or have him climb over interior rails and fall a few stories. It was just too easy for a toddler to yank his arm free and race through a tight crowd of adults.

I'm just teasing. I don't care either way about the leashes. I don't have one, plus don't think I'd need one, but I'm not going to bash parents who use them. :shrug:

I'm poor. Rope is cheap. For the price of 1 stroller, for 1 child, I could harness an entire kindergarden class.
