Is it safe to mount a double kickstand onto an aluminum bike? (self.bikewrench)

I have an aluminum Brodie Revel bike that I've attached a kids seat to. Is it safe for me to mount a double kickstand like the one in the link to this bike? It doesn't have a mounting plate, and someone told me I should only attach these to steel bikes or it will break the frame. Any insight would be super appreciated!

You didn't share a link. I'm assuming you mean a center stand. It's probably fine, but you'll want to check with the manufacturer.
