Much more difficult with a ten year old.
Never let the opportunity to humiliate pass you by. 
Not Difficult. Embarassing.
Oh, and I was referring to the wrist leash, but the full body leash looks MUCH more secure.
True. Although a bit of wisdom... Be nice to your children. They're the ones who pick your nursing home.
I tried to use one of those harness leashes on my boy when he was just under two. Yeah right. That was like trying to leash a 4 year old cat who had never had one on before. I took it off before he had a chance to break his neck thrashing around on the ground.Note that trying to leash a ten year old is like trying to nail jello to a tree or herd cats.
...this afternoon, I had a few errands to run after work. On that list was to return an item to Lowes. So I'm standing at the return counter watching folks as usual, when I felt something warm on the palm of my strong side hand which was hanging at my side !!!
I flinched, grabbed the something and looked for the agressor, but looked right over his little head..... he was about 4, and looked up at me and asked.." hey, have you seen my mom? " It was obvious to me that he expected me to know where she was. So I hoisted him up, and as soon as his butt landed on my shoulder, he hollered "MOM ??" About this time, mom came around up the aisle, and started fussing at the little one, about not knowing where he was, when he said, "well, HE (pointing at me) knew where I was, but we couldn't find you..." Mom just stared at him, and I laughed..... then began making elevation adjustments to my "radar".
