Is its safe to carry a child on a bike in Dublin City?

I am a keen cyclist and although people say cycling through the city centre is dangerous, I do not agree if you keep your eyes and ears open, have a good bike etc. you can get from a to b in one piece.

However, I would never use one of those trailer things for my children even though I know they would love it. I just think you will not be as mobile or able to react as quickly also just think there are too many drivers out there that do not see bikes. You are kinda lucky that you can jump/fall off your bike and perhaps out of dangers way but your child will be stuck in the trailer!
