Small kids doesn't stop you from biking lmfao. It just changes what setup of bike you need to have.

the weather doesn't allow it, or...

The only weather that would prevent it is a hurricane and you shouldn't be driving in one of those either.

Spoken like someone who hasn't had to deal with kids. Or worked a job with a dress code.

No, it's spoken like someone who's been to the numerous countries where they bike with their kids just fine.

worked a job with a dress code

A 5-7 mile commute is doable without being sweaty with the right bike.

Sure, because rain and snow don't exist.

Raincoats exist man. Rain bubbles exist. It's a solved problem. Snow just isn't that hard

There's weather I would prefer a house over a tent. Similarly there's weather I would drive in that I wouldn't bike in (even with a raincoat).
