... without safety netting to keep them up there rather than an unintended bounce onto the ground ?

...against trampolines at home. The netting can keep you from falling off, but does nothing to keep you from landing badly.

AAP Recommendation

Don't buy a trampoline for your home! Trampolines may be popular and a fun way to get exercise, but there are safer ways to encourage your children to be physically active, such as playing catch, riding a bike (don't forget a bike helmet), or playing a team sport.

The AAP recommends that mini and full-sized trampolines never be used at home, in routine gym classes, or on playgrounds. They should only be used in supervised training programs for gymnastics, diving, or other competitive sports. Only one person should be allowed on a trampoline at any given time.

- Children can get hurt when they:

- Land wrong while jumping.

- Land wrong while flipping and doing somersaults (this should not be allowed because of the risk of head and neck injuries).

- Try stunts.

- Strike or are struck by another person.

- Fall or jump off the trampoline.

- Land on the springs or frame.

While doing a routine supervised by the gym teacher.

Don't know why people think they are fun.
