I saw the child harnesses and I have a six month old and my son runs away from me all the time even when I tell him to stay with me in a firm tone. Should I get a child harness, I have a double stroller and I want my son to walk when we are out to get more exercised.
IT'S NOT A LEASH, IT'S A HARNESS, IT DOESN'T NOT GO AROUND THEIR NECKS, BUT AROUND THEIR ARMS.
My son has just turned two
I just bought an angel alert system that alerts me when my child is out of reach, he wears a transmitter and I wear a receiver

This is BEST if you are in a situation where a toddler could get lost in a shuffle of people, or run out in a parking lot and get hurt...
ALWAYS KEEP YOUR CHILD SAFE!
You can ignore the looks, comments, or grief anyone might give you, keep your child safe while he is learning to stick close to Momma. Sounds like you're a great one! Good luck.
Also, a note on the wrist ones, I'd prefer the backpack kind as a jerk on the wrist (any joint) of a small child can cause severe joint injury that is a potential problem the rest of his life! (I taught preschool gymnastics for 5 years!)

What is your opinion on child leashes?

When I'm out in public I just want to snap the necks of parents who put this shit on their children. I don't understand why the Government doesn't just ban it. I will never respect any person who puts a dog leash on child. I believe in learning your freedom at a young age and being free at a young age so in the future you don't just follow anyone because your afraid. I believe when children put on leashes grow up they will rebel against their parents and it is justified rebellion. The Government needs to consider anybody who puts their child on a leash unfit to be a parent. What do you think?
Answer
Hand holding: causes an unnatural gait. If the child throws themselves on the ground, parent either lets go of their hand (putting the child in danger) or squeezes the hand tighter and possibly lifts the child by the hand (which can cause what's called Nanny's Elbow, a serious injury.) Also, what happens if mom's hands are full?
Strollers: Don't work for every child, limits exercise, limits ability to explore the world, and does not teach a child to walk with their parent.
Baby gates and baby-proofing an area. Allows a child to explore, play, and learn freedoms in a safe contained area until they are old enough that you can count on them to be safe. Most parents don't hesitate using these tools to allow freedom with safety limitations.
Leashes: Allows a child freedom to walk and explore in a safe limited range. It literally should be seen as a moving baby-gate. Allows them to practice walking with the adults without putting them at risk. These are not dog-leashes, they are more related to "Mother's apron strings" which in the old days women would tie a string to their apron or use their apron string to tie their children to them, usually by the hand, so they could be busy (hanging laundry, working outside, etc) while their toddler/child explored but stayed nearby. (This is where the expression "Time to cut the apron string" comes from.)
I urge you to read the following links and consider that these parents would not have lost their children if they had used a safety-leash, either of the backpack or hand variety. The last link is an uncle who has been charged and convicted by a jury for not keeping his nephew with him in a parking lot, a leash not only would have saved the boy's life but also kept this man from being charged.
