Transcript
- 0:00No backs to the Erica Show on G one oh five Eric and Trevor.
- 0:04Kids on Leashes is apparently blowing up online. This was something years ago that
- 0:09I remember people freaking out about. But now you found a new dad with
- 0:13a bunch of kids on leashes. Yeah. So these kids look to be
- 0:16about three or four years old and this has gone viral on Facebook. I
- 0:21saw where people are giving him crap because he has his quintuplets on leashes.
- 0:28As he walks through it looks like a theme park or something. So here's
- 0:31the picture, Erica. So, first of all, God bless him a
- 0:35pack of dogs. Basically he does like somebody walking a bunch of dogs dogs,
- 0:40which I'm not saying those kids are beautiful. I'm not saying that,
- 0:42but that's what the picture looks like. So people are saying that these are
- 0:47not animals. You should not have your kids on leashes, and he's saying
- 0:51that the leashes allow him to do fun stuff with his kids without being stressed.
- 0:56You know about the kids running off because you got one, two through
- 0:59five kids to count, because I know what quintuplets were. Five kids.
- 1:03Uh, that's craziness. I'm like, first of all, where's your partner
- 1:07in crime? Because that's five kids running through a theme park, same age.
- 1:10That is a lot. He told me, a single dad you never
- 1:11know? Possibly so and the mom just ran away because she's like five,
- 1:15same age as a lot. Do you think it's okay for parents to have
- 1:19kids on leashes? We bought to go to Disney for the first time my
- 1:23kids. I got one of those Mickey Mouse backpacks that has like a I
- 1:26want to say, a leash on it, and we've already gifted it to
- 1:30somebody else because I'll snatch my kids up. Been a heartbeat. Now they
- 1:32know to listen, but we either put them in a stroller where they're strapped
- 1:34in, or I did use that backpack because they will dart off. And
- 1:38if you're at a theme park or like at the NC State Fair, kids
- 1:42can get missing like that and that's your that's your life. So I don't
- 1:45think it's horrible that he had that. At least he's been a good dad
- 1:48taking them to a theme park. What do you think? Nine one,
- 1:49nine eight sixh one oh five one. It's the Erica Show. How do
- 1:53you feel about kids on a leash? Trevor has got this picture of a
- 1:57dad with what five kids tuplets on a leash they're like three or four years
- 2:01old in a theme park and he's getting hate online, but he's like,
- 2:06no, this is how we get to go do fun things, because otherwise
- 2:08I'm gonna be stressed that they're gonna run away. I'm not gonna lie.
- 2:12I'm impressed with this dad, Bob, do you think that it's okay for
- 2:15kids to be on leiches like this? Yeah? I think it's a good
- 2:17ideal. I'd rather see the leaf they're missing. I mean, I kind
- 2:23of agree. I would rather put the kids on a so called leash instead
- 2:27of them running off and then they're gone, Well, you did it in
- 2:29Disney right when they were younger. I did, and that's fine and thin.
- 2:32It was at least a Mickey Mouse backpack, so it looked a little
- 2:36cuter than just a leash. Eric Is show, there's a dad that's gone
- 2:38viral with a lot of hate online because he's got all five of his Quinn
- 2:42tuplets that are around age four on leashes at an amusement park. Yeah,
- 2:46and he's saying, no, like, the leashes are what allows us to
- 2:49go places and do things. Without me stressing about losing them. So we're
- 2:53getting a lot of feedback on the iHeartRadio app. On our talkback mic from
- 2:57Brittany, this is child abuse. This dad shouldn't have kids if he can't
- 3:00watch them without putting them on leashes like dogs. Okay. I wonder how
- 3:06many kids you have, though, Brittany, because I could see he was
- 3:08just trying to do his best. He was doing his best wing tuplets.
- 3:13He got some good swimmers, That's all I gotta say. Danielle also leaving
- 3:16a talkback message weighing in on the kids on leash topic. How else is
- 3:20this dad supposed to watch his kids in public? It's about safety, Yeah,
- 3:23that's what he's saying. I mean when I go somewhere with the kids.
- 3:27Now, I don't have them leashes, but I have their arms locked
- 3:29so tight that I probably leave a mark after I've got them.
