Pitbulls and kids?

it all depends on the dependability of the child and if the child knows how to handle the dog and knows how to reconise an aggretion growl or an startled growl and other tell tell signs if the dog is in a bad mood. me personaly, i let my 8yr old son feed and walk my big pit when i could get my son in the summer and the pit never showed any aggretions towards my son other than wanting to lick him to death. the pit never growled or anything, he just wanted to be petted and his back rubbed. my pit was a teddy bear with humans, but hated pigs. with the bad rep them dogs have because of irrisonsible pit owners, they have got a black eye and if a neighbor stuck their nose in your bizness, you might have to deal with the cops or social workers, but i highly dought it would ever come to that.
