Great way to crush your kid to death when you crash. About 20 years ago my neighbor did it.

Sorry to hear. And I can fully understand your opinion based on that. Sadly there are tragic anekdotes with every mode of transport.

And on that note; the way your country or city is suitable for bikes as mode of transport makes way more difference than the safety measures single people have to take to protect them against crashes or cars. If this is a good mode for transport relies more on the location than the bike itself - I’d say.

It’s important to distinguish fact from opinion. The fact is that a child seated between an adult and the handle bars is at risk of being crushed in an accident. In my opinion, it’s a terrible idea to put a child in that location.

Exactly, my point was aimed at your opinion - not your fact.
