Ann Arbor, MI—After a difficult day of watching ABC Family original movies, Child Leash parent Dianne Setter wishes her son, Timothy, could just walk his damn self to the mall and back without her having to get off the couch.
Although Setter purchased the leash to minimize the effort needed to take care of the fruit of her loins, it has now become a burden to hold the strap that keeps her son from running onto the freeway. Aside from bouts of Carpal Tunnel sustained from yanking her son back when he decides to run off and pee in public, Setter also has developed a terrible case of apathy.
“When we went to the Grand Canyon last summer for a family vacation I was tempted to let go and have him run jack-ass wild off a ridge, strap flailing behind him in the wind,” admitted Setter.
“Same deal at Niagara Falls. Both the New York and Canadian sides.”
