    You have got to be kidding me with that one.  That is just sick what that women did.

    You have to think - If someone treats a child like that in public. . what happens at home when no one is watching?

    Good point Kristin.  You just never know with people.  They honestly amaze me everyday with what I see sometimes.  I work in the city you see so much sh*t and how people just don't care.

    I'd like to hear the backstory on this before I completely judge her. True, dragging a kid on the floor isn't right, but how many times have we seen a parent yank a screaming toddler out of a store or something? Kids throw tantrums and lay on the ground and won't get up. Again, dragging the kid along wasn't right and I'm not excusing it (especially since the linked article says the kid had noticeable marks on his neck), but I don't think that necessarily makes her a negligent or abusive parent. Maybe a frustrated mom who just made a bad choice and got caught on video doing it. Obviously the better choice would've been to pick him up instead of dragging him (and honestly I judge people who use leashes in the first place).

    Was she shopping? I don't have sound on my work computer so I just assumed that she was taking him out.

    Looks like it was a Verizon store, and she was going to customer service.

    Um... why not just pick the kid up and high tail it out of the store. When does the thought of dragging a child enter ones mind?

    Judge me if you will, I use that leash from time to time HOWEVER, I would never not in one billion years drag my son with that leash on - there are times, several of them to be frank, that I have had to remove a screaming and/or kicking child out of a store because he was throwing a tantrum but never ever would I drag him - the worst I've done was grab his wrist and just walk with him very fast out of a store for being beligerant or what have you this lady is fuckked up and no joke, if I witnessed her doing that I would have slapped the living piss_ out of her
