    I am reflecting on my own parenting. I see possible benefits of a leash.

    We’ve never used a leash. Instead I do a lot of yelling / stern vocalizations to keep kids away from areas they shouldn’t be. My approach is fraught with negative side effects because I often come off as angry, and my spouse and I work on checking me if it gets to be too much.

    A leash could be a good alternative, or just an additional option to incorporate. It’s food for thought.
