Thanks acidfast. Is it generally thought that you shouldn't allow a newborn infant on a bike until he can support the weight of his head? Correct? Just curious. I guess unless you can somehow make sure the newborn's head won't be able to move anywhere. That just sounds uncomfortable though.

But over here, it's very common to see people using a Römer Jockey seat. I live next to a school and I probably see roughly 15 kids per morning get dropped off with one of these. When I commute through the city in the middle of the summer, I usually see roughly 20-30 kids on their way to school or going home.

So, my comment to your co-worker would be that in most countries, kids go by bike to/from school/daycare/shopping on a bike, so why would you expect me to be any different?







I occasionally also see smaller children on the front, but usually only in Denmark and in eastern Europe.



I'd take him with you.
