It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I'm assuming you've never seen a bicycle child seat? Fits on standard bikes: https://specials-images.forbesimg.com/imageserve/5ef62a3b8826b50007fe74a1/960x0.jpg
For up to 3 kids you can use a longtail cargo bike: https://xtracycle.com/cdn/shop/files/eStoker-Matte-Black-1536x1024.jpg - I see those hauling kids all over the Boston metro area since there are decent bike lanes and paths there.
And if you need to haul more kids than that, get ready to have your mind blown: https://youtu.be/uHsAaZI3hfc
