× Unfortunately, I don't have.
✓ Unfortunately, I didn't have one.
Original uses present-tense contraction 'don't' with past context and omits an object. Use past tense 'didn't' to match the time reference 'when you were a child' and include a pronoun or noun ('one') to indicate 'a bike'.
× I didn't have a bike when I was a child and because I really wanted but I don't know why my parents don't buy me.
✓ I didn't have a bike when I was a child, and although I really wanted one, I don't know why my parents didn't buy me one.
The sentence mixes past and present tenses and misses a connector. Use past tense 'didn't buy' for the parents' action in the past, add 'one' to refer to the bike, and use 'although' or 'even though' to show contrast. Keep 'I don't know why' is acceptable in present to express current lack of knowledge, but the clause about parents should be past tense.
× I think it's because of my safety.
✓ I think it's because of safety concerns.
Saying 'because of my safety' is understandable but unnatural; 'safety concerns' is idiomatic. Also removing the possessive and article makes the phrase more natural in this context.
× In the past in my country, bikes wasn't popular because it's a little bit not our culture.
✓ In the past in my country, bikes weren't popular because cycling was not really part of our culture.
Use plural verb 'weren't' to agree with plural subject 'bikes'. 'It's a little bit not our culture' is ungrammatical and unnatural; rephrase to 'was not really part of our culture' to express the idea in past tense and idiomatic English.
× But nowadays it's very it's become very popular because.
✓ But nowadays it has become very popular.
Remove redundant 'it's' and incomplete 'because.' Use present perfect 'has become' to describe a change from past to present. If giving a reason, complete the sentence, e.g. 'because more people are concerned about the environment.'
