[quote=Anonymous]We have had a trampoline in our back yard since my granddaughter was about 4 yo. She is 15. I have a 5 yo grandson. Neither have ever had a problem with the trampoline. No broken bones, sprains, etc. They love jumping on it. Have the two of them jumped together? Sure have, but not high jumping, my granddaughter knows very light jumping with her brother, otherwise for most part, it is just one at a time. You CAN teach your child boundaries. They know they are NOT allowed on it without supervision

As for the neighbors. We have a 6 ft fence around our yard. Was it a novelty when the neighborhood kids found out we had it? Sure has. Have any of them asked to jump on it? Sure have. Have any of them jumped on it? Only a select few. Have I turned kids away? Yup, because I do not want that responsibility. Have any of the teen kids jumped our fence to come in the yard? No, because they know better. One jumped my fence to get a soccer ball in our yard, he was quickly put in his place and told under no circumstances was he to jump the fence. Hasnt happened since.

Not sure what our insurance company would say, we had no reason to call and say hey we are putting a trampoline in our yard. Why if we arent allowing anyone other than our family to jump on it. Far as I am concerned, if someone comes into the yard uninvited that is trespassing. They dont belong there to begin with. [/quote]
