Leash kid
My son is and runner and as a single mom it's hard to go anywhere with just the 2 of us so he has a leash backpack or the one that goes in our wrist i feel like 1 it's safer and 2 he's alongside me not running off with me chasing him. I get weird looks and my parents and some friends say it's bad and he shouldn't need ur am I wrong for using them? They have me second-guessing myself.

Absolutely nothing wrong with it, you do you and keep your son safe xx
I use to have one for my oldest daughter when she was 1 year old so i got my niece one cause she the same way people actually compliments and smile on it when we go to the store said that a good thing so they can't run off anywhere
Nope I had one and sone people would say oh I need one of them for my child where did I buy. My child has now learnt and holds hands no more running randomly . It helps them understand boundaries and danger. Just wait 3 months you will see difference. Why would you second guess to risk your child be in danger

Nope, you do whatever you’re comfortable with. As long as your child is safe and happy! Ask the judgemental people; “would you rather him run off, I don’t get to him in time, and he’s hit by a car?” We can teach safety all we like, but sometimes they just don’t understand (depending on their age and abilities). My Dad actually suggested I get one for my son! I already had one but it was just too big for him 😅 he’s only 16 months but just loves to run.
