Five years old? Not a chance !! Until they can reach the OE footpegs or beyond I believe that taking a child on the pillion is asking for a disaster. Bicycles are made for little children because the kids develop balance and coordination riding a bike. Bicycles cause road rash but rarely death.
I'd rather have you on your bike paying complete attention to the road instead of having part of your attention on the little one on the adult seat behind you. It's just my opinion but lots of injuries and deaths can be prevented by not doing dumbass things to begin with.
