See, I think it's more like extra protection if you're in a busy setting. While I've never used a leash, I don't see an issue with using them. You can teach your child these things AND put them on a leash in chaotic situations as extra protection. I watch my kids very closely but it only takes a second for one to dart off in a random moment...Especially in a crowded place. [ Reply | More ]

I don't understand why this makes you think she can't watch him. I find that those leashes are a great way to allow them a little extra freedom while still being safe. Not necessary for all kids, but a nice, easy way to have a little extra peace of mind if you're in a busy place. [ Reply | More ]

These don't bother me at all. 2 yos ARE cognitively similar to dogs. I have an easy toddler girl but wouldn't hesitate to use a leash if in a crowded place/traveling where we might get separated. Really no different than confining a child in a stroller. [ Reply | More ]

[ - ] Anthony Weiner (running for NYC mayor) and his wife Huma Abedin, who works for Hilary Clinton and is very close to her, moved from Queeens to live in a Park Avenue South apt. The article about Huma today says it is owned by a Clinton donor. A previous article said the market rate for that four-bedroom apt would be $13,000 a month. Weiner and wife said at that time they were paying market rate, but declined to provide proof to the Times. Now that's he's running for mayor, should he provide proof that they're not getting a free apt in Manhattan from a Clinton friend? 41 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]

Not really. I'm sure you'll get a few stories here of a toddler learning something. Yes, they might pick up a song or random fact from watching TV. But for the most part, no they aren't learning. [ Reply | More ]

maybe. They also learn things from playing with empty boxes. Toddlers are sponges soaking up everything around them. I'm not an anti-TV or screen person. My toddlers watched TV, and the younger one used the iPad and my phone (didn't have when older one was a toddler). I just personally don't focus on 'educational' tv or apps. Life is life, some of it is fun and some is dumb and i'm ok with that. [ Reply | More ]

He also says that he feels much better physically not eating animal products.
