I reviewed the available data on both the vaccine and the disease and decided that given my children’s medical history and my family’s medical circumstances, the risk/benefit calculus was firmly on the side of vaccination.

given that your young child is literally in the trial for young children, what data was there to indicate it was safe or beneficial for them?
They are in the phase 3 cohort. Phase 1 assesses safety. And while children are not just small adults, the successful and safe rollout in the adult population added to the data.
Where did you obtain a peer reviewed study of the phase 1 safety assessment? I legitimately would like to read it, as someone else with an under 5 child.
