  I should rent a car multiple times every week? No thank you. I don’t think people with infants and toddlers expect them to ride a bike. Taking kids around to their clubs and sports, etc isn’t practical. I’m happy almost no one thinks like you do. You sound miserable. I hope you recover.

I see infants and toddlers on (their parents') bikes all the time. Parents regularly carry 2 kids on a bike with them.

Tons of parents around here use cargo bikes - my son went to daycare ~5 miles away on the back of mine and still hops on the back for longer trips in grade school. With e-assist it’s faster than driving, way less stressful and expensive, and the difference is that kids love getting on bikes in a way that they don’t riding in cars because they can see so much more of the world.
