Kid Leash/Monkey backpack

This was Mother's day 2008 and we were at my sisters. We were outside her apartment BBQ-ing and I didn't wanted him running off to the parking lot or where there were cars so Than and I decided to put our "Monkey backpack kiddo leash" to good use. I know how split this is for parents that think its horrible and parents like us who love the idea especially for busy/crowed/dangerous places like airports. I like him to feel like he has his freedom but still being connected to him. I remember my mom using a wrist version on me when i was younger, so i guess its a family thing.

Anyway all the people that disapprove of this thingy enjoy this picture b/c it really looks like I am walking him. LOL!!normally I hold his had in addtion to having the tail on my wrist.
