Kiddo Kidkeeper - Better than a leash, more like an electric fence...

I've always thought those child leashes were at least a bit demeaning (to both the kid and the parent), but what's one to do with a mischievous toddler? Well, here's something just a bit better - the Kiddo Kidkeeper, which, to continue the dog analogy, is an electric fence instead of a leash. The parent can set a certain range for the kid to roam, past which an alarm will sound so mom or dad knows to round'em up. The maker's site is thoughtful enough to point out that "the Kiddo can also be used to monitor adults (those with Alzheimer's, for instance), valuable property, or pets." Hmm, I think we're back in "demeaning" territory here...
