Dd 8 has been asking for a trampoline for around 2 years. I’ve always said no due to the injury aspect of them but then i came across springfree trampolines. They claim to have eliminated 90% of the injuries children have on trampolines so i decided that maybe i was being over cautious and i should let her have one.
I also have a ds who is nearly 4 but his head is larger than the proportion of his body and he is 30cm smaller than dd.
I know they will be arguing about the one person at a time thing and i am worried about one of them landing funny and causing a significant injury to themselves (more so ds due to the proportion of his head and body)
I know plenty of children have them with no injuries etc.
I ordered a springfree trampoline last night and then after a few hours i decided it wasn't a good idea and have rang to cancel it this morning.
The lady on the phone wanted to know why i wanted to cancel so i explained about ds and the worry about one of them landing funny and causing a significant injury to themselves.
She said there was alot of misinformation online about trampolines and really did the hard sell!
Am i a kill joy?
Am i being over cautious?
