agreed. driving along 455, back to Rattan and varying points around the neighborhood it is pretty clear that Trampolines are OK. It also looks like just about everyone has one in various states of wear. I know our safety net is now gone. Ah the good old days when they didnt come with them. As a kid i was always jumping off and falling off and landing in the springs. Our kids miss out on so much fun and are led inside to play video games all day. poor little ones. they do not get to play with lead covered toys and weekly physical injuries. no wonder we have grown soft as country.
