I was never leashed as a child. Not with a physical leash, anyway - but mom had the "invisi-leash" going - "get back here right this instant or else!" I knew she'd follow through on the "or else", so I got back there!
I think wrist leashes have their place. If you have a little kid who likes to run off into crowds or traffic, or you're going to an unusually crowded location, or you have 3-4 kids of varying ages to keep track of, it's probably safest that the little one be "attached" to you lest s/he get lost, hit by a car, kidnapped, etc. But a kid should not be leashed as a matter of course. Nor do I like the harness leashes - you wouldn't put a dog or cat in a harness (unless it's a seeing-eye dog, but that's different) so how can you do it to your own child?
