I've seen studies where pits rank very highly in not getting agitated with kids. I think the issue is usually more that they can be very protective of their kids towards other dogs.

Undisciplined

This dog is strong but I think ts not as dangerous as rotwillers and bullies.

I think it's not always accurate to stereotype breeds. As a kid we had a neighbor that had a Saint Bernard that bit a child and had to be put down. I felt terrible. I used to play with that dog for hours without any issues.  I really think it's more about the owners than the dogs.  All of my dogs over the past 30 years have been bull breeds except one, which was a little Norfolk Terrier. The ONLY dog who ever showed any aggression was the Norfolk Terrier. I have owned bulldogs, American bulldogs, and a Staffy Bull Terrier, all of whom were reliable, safe, and great with kids.
