If you have a trampoline I need your Input

Summer is still a far far away from now, but the kids are already asking " This summer can we get a Trampoline?"

But. They scare me. A lot.

Hubs grew up with a trampoline and he tells me all the time I am over reacting. That I am mothering the boys too much and they are going to grow up sissies.

Actually, a lot of people tell me I am over protective - but I hate to see them get hurt.

So tell me. Should this be the year I give in?

To ease your worries, get one of the nets to go around the trampoline, they can't fall off

I knew someone who installed their trampoline in a pit just the diameter of the trampoline. That way, the trampoline was on the same level with the ground.
On the other hand, our neighbors when I was a kid had theirs on the cement driveway! Don't remember any disasters...but, I think that was just dumb luck...
Coffee Mom's idea is a good one.

No. Trampolines are the leading cause of head injuries in children.

That's my nursey opinion.

I want one, the kids want one, the hubby wants one... but the MOMMA in me says no.
