Clearly I fit into the most terrible parent catogory. I cannot watch my two children 100% of the time, I like to look at things when out and about, I have to stop to scratch thus letting go a hand.
Now I have not had to use reins thus far, but I am expecting a new member to the family. I don't have enough hands and if I have to resort to one then I will.
I am just questioning the reason people give a flying fig what other parents do with their children.
You don't like it fine don't do it with your kids, if it makes you feel better to believe you are a better parent for not using them then go for it.
My kids love me despite all the "crappy" parenting decisions I make and they are happy so I will just continue on my merry way.
