Also interesting as I have NEVER seen a child on a leash crying. The kids I see crying are the ones who are strapped into their strollers not able to stretch their legs and walk.

Ditto.

Yep! We have the monkey backpack with a tail and my son loves his "monkey". Unless he is very tired he gets very upset being in the stroller because he wants to walk and check things out.

When he is in the car after we take it off he asks for it and hugs it. Sometimes when we are walking (and we live on a busy road) he does not want to hold my hand and I need him to stop at cross walks, etc. If he is wearing his monkey he feels independent and I feel like he is not going to get hit by a car.

I really don't care what strangers think when they see it (although most people think it is cute) because it allows him controlled independence and he seems perfectly happy with it.

I'm with you
