What the largest bird is best for someone with young children?

I am interested in buying a larger bird. I would buy an umbrella cockatoo, but I'm interested in Electus, and African gray. Which of these birds would be better in a home with 2 children under 5 years? Any help or advice is appreciated.

A house with small children can not be absolutely the largest birds. Is, assuming that parents are willing to make the effort to take steps to ensure the bird and the child does not, without very careful supervision Children. less than 5 years should not be left alone in a room with a caged bird. The little fingers through the bars of the cage can be quickly bitten. I think the parrot power is often underestimated by people who adopt the first time. The three species that are of interest (gray, Ekki, and Umbi) are all very capable of biting hard, and loudly. They are very sensitive emotionally and may have behavioral problems if does not arise. Each of these three species have a high potential for the plumage, and Cockatoos Returnees are often shouting for questions. If you are ready to handle this with two preschool-age children I would have to decide what best suits your parrot home, and only you can know that. But wait there (SAFE) Parrot The interaction between children until their children are somewhat older. ** Edit ** I'm very surprised to see a "vet tech Avian umbrella cockatoo recommend as the best option. That's why many birds have migrated. Cockatoos are definitely not for beginners. Cockatoos are not the best option to have around children. Cockatoos have a reputation for stuffed birds, which can be very misleading. Pats is sweet, but also resembles in need, emotionally dependent birds.
