I don't have kids, but this looks like an awesome way to raise them.

I live in inner city Berlin and see them every single day, it's amusing to see how this is a foreign concept to so many people.

To be clear, I love this thing and would love to have one if this city had a) infrastructure that could support it and b) enough of a social support system that the constant bike theft wasn't just a daily part of life here.

Those might be ok here in summer, but the snow (and shitty city management) plus hills would not work out well in the winter.

Where's here for you?

This sounds wonderful. I live in Oakland California, and I love picking up my kid from preschool with a trailer. It's not quite as elegant as this, but it is nice that I can remove the trailer and use the bike in its original fashion.

About 25 years ago. My dad would take me and my sis to daycare like that with a bike trailer. It was fun.

That was 25 years ago, it's even easier today because of electric bikes.
