You might notice that Gundurun's toddler leash attaches around Leolie's neck.  This would not be a good idea with humans, but with mermaids, it's the best place.  Mermaids don't use their necks to breathe, and anywhere else on the body (waist, wrist, tail, etc.) it could slide off too easily.  It also takes less force to tug a toddler through the water than it would on dry land.  And while toddler leashes can be useful for human parents, they're practically a must for mermaids.
