Of course, there are places in Mexico that you don't want to go. Plenty of places in the US you don't want to go with a family either.
Mexico is fine for a family with kids, but you need to be intentional in where you go and what you do. I've done multiple trips north of Puerto Vallarta to vacation towns, as a couple and with kids. All very culturally enriching trips, never felt unsafe, but it does require being aware of your surroundings. Many friends have brought their families down to the same area.
That said, it definitely isn't for everyone. Some people are happier sitting in an all-inclusive resort sipping drinks on a beach with a bunch of other Americans. Personally, that's not why I travel abroad, I can do that stuff in the US. You need to decide what experience you really want.
