Looking at the condition of your bike overall, I would not feel safe pulling a child on that bike even before the accident. You got away without too much physical damage the first time.
I hit a sizable branch on a hardpack trail and instead of being a bump over it jammed the wheel and I went over. Not something I would normally do but it happened.

As for the bike, what is wrong with it? It is something multiple LBS have tuned up and never said anything was wrong other than being old.
