What is the safest way to ride a bicycle with a child?

The safest way to ride a bicycle with a child is when that child is able to ride a bike safely with you on their own bike, with their own helmet on, under their own power. Now, they do make special attachments where the child can ride in tandem with you on a third wheel. It's a bar that connects to your seat post that extends out behind the back wheel, and the child is pedalling right along with you - has their own seat and their own handlebars. That weight is evenly distributed and it is a safe way to ride with your child. But the safest way to ride with your child is when they're old enough to ride under their own power - own seat, own handlebars, and own helmet.
