Mom warns parents about the potential dangers of trampolines

[@ThePooterMan642]

That’s stupid like you don’t bring a toddler to a trampoline park

[@arvinlangholm646]

yh im a gymnast and I often go to a trampoline park and one section of the park os 10+ yet i still see parents bringing their small children in there and people who are in no way old enough take up all the good trampolines when they dont even wheigh enough that the trampolines help

[@Gamer_Mama_0611]

We have a Trampoline park nearby that advertises it's for all ages & even has a section for toddlers called Little Air. When you're a new parent, you just don't know everything. That's why I'm here to research; I'm the fun-killing mom who researches everything because I put safety first. Now I gotta break the news to my husband, who's the "let's just try it" dad.

Imagine bringing you baby to a trampoline park expecting them to play with the big boys at 3 years old…

[@aaronstobo1751]

I used to work at a trampoline park and I’d see parents double bouncing there little kids...you know that can’t be safe 1 person per square

[@THE2SOURCE]

Parents aren't aware of physics and how applying 200 lbs to a trampoline will cause that 200 lbs to snap back to zero again. Any child that is currently going down as the parent is going up is going to either have their ankle snapped, or the leg broken.

Well..... that's what happens when you bring a 3 year old to a trampoline park. Parents must be cousins....

Tanner Ragle i think yours may be 😨

When I was 15 I used to almost have a heart attack when a relative let her 2 yr old jump alone on a large trampoline with no net and the trampoline was over concrete paving slabs. So many times it looked like he was going to land head-first onto the concrete. I kept stopping him when I visited but his mom told me off

[@nataleeisjustchilling2737]

Yeah especially unsupervised my mom took my brother to a trampoline park with me when he was 3 and my mom didn’t let him out of her sight and made sure he stayed in the toddler/little kid zone and he was just fine he didn’t even care to jump he just liked running around on the trampolines like the other toddlers/little kids

[@KrosanBeast315]

I feel extremely sorry for this kid because his Mother didn't know better. The American Academy of Pedriatrics recommends, "CHILDREN UNDER 6 SHOULD NEVER USE A TRAMPOLINE." There are small bouncing trampolines meant for little kids...That is true. But the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation mostly likely applies to large trampolines many people have and use, as well as trampoline parks. Many trampolines people have aren't even enclosed, increasing the chance for injury. But truthfully, for Colton's mom... common sense should've have kicked in and said, "A three year old should NEVER use a large trampoline or go to a trampoline park." The company said, "we are investigating how an incident of this nature could have happened." That means that the trampoline park company either didn't know about or ignored the recommendation of The American Academy of Pediatrics....which makes the company and others like it who don't know the recommendation a dangerous and potentially deadly liability. Colton's mom she would have read about the age limit a child should be able to use a trampoline BEFORE letting her kid set foot inside a trampoline park. She should have also kept her guard up by thinking the trampoline park company doesn't know as much as they might claim. So, it is really his Mother's fault that he is in all this pain and his pain is tragically still continuing. Her son's doctor said, "A toddler's bones are too fragile to sustain the stress of repeated jumping on a trampoline." She should have already known this! The moral of this story is: Consider a child's body mechanics and physical limitations before letting them do anything of this degree of physical exertion, do your research and read up about anything physical like this concerning a child, read about what ages are truly safe to allow a child to participate in specific activity like this, and always watch your kid regardless of how safe a company claims. As an example for all those who post things after this, let's put the dangers of trampolines out there and into perspective. In 2015 alone: 107,100 trampoline-related ER visits occurred(from children to adults)! Also from 2009 - 2013, 21 people have LOST THEIR LIVES to trampolines!! So, statistically...even IF you are trained and have expert spotters with you.... it is safer to watch other people use a large trampoline than use one yourself or let a kid over 6 use it.

[@amberridley4222]

I’m not sure how they think that babies jump up and down repeatedly 🙂 I mean my son walked at 9 months and even at 3 he was more like hop walking not full on bouncing if your watching your child closely like one should at ANY PARK then I’m not sure how it’s dangerous.

[@folasadeosibodu7119]

Interesting how she never said what happened to him…..

[@latoyiab79]

That's what I was waiting on.

[@folasadeosibodu7119]

LMAO right

[@comradestalin4826]

Bruh why do adults have to complain about everything

[@Gamer_Mama_0611]

Complain about what? Why does the mom need to warn people about her son's FEMUR breaking? As in...the biggest bone in the body?! That's the most excruciating break anyone can ever experience. But ya no, just go "Oh well" & let others just go along & do it too? We warn other parents to LEARN. Why don't you go watch another video with cocomelon on it or something? You sound like a child who was just told no by his mom.

[@liamc7188]

So quick to blame others take responsibility for once

[@jacobbaker4545]

I didnt like how she blamed the trampoline park. Never taken my kid to one but i do know they have toddler times there. And one kid per square. They dont say HOW he got hurt.

[@DJDahm]

This SO dramatic, when the mother said “The advertising said it was good for little kids” First of all, it’s a 2 YEAR OLD And second of all, Who in the hack believes advertising, she should’ve KNOWN how bouncy trampolines are. P.s sry if I offended anyone in this comment

[@DG8o]

The tramp park near my house has that agreement thing where they clearly state that they are not resonsible for injuries... And every park i know has that so its the parents fault

[@hamstermunchies5558]

Just to be allowed into my local park you have to sign lots of paperwork saying you understand the risks and that the park will not be held responsible for any injuries

[@oliviareade9236]

my moms friend broke her femur on a trampoline but it was bc alcohol was involed

[@markbrown5117]

She let her son jump on a trampoline. Not too smart.

[@katarinag3g.80]

Mother’s fault. You are responsible for your child’s safety. Literally, that is your job. Anyone can fall down the stairs but are they blaming the stairs and want a recall???

[@bettyemery9427]

This so crazy for sure they should have rules how old kids can be in the trampoline a don’t matter if is private home or in the park.. p.s. kids is important it’s for the future and what’s in the the future if you don’t have kids anymore because of the trampoline thingy thing be wise people specially for the kids help save the kids more love for our kids pretty please 🙏 🥺

[@ratha8799]

I've taken my LO at a trampoline park. Just keep them away from the bigger kids, watch your tot and don't do anything stupid with them. I broke my elbow falling off a trampoline when I when I was lil, and that sure taught me what NOT to do and to educate my LOs on trampoline safety

[@ratha8799]

Gonna still get one for my tots

[@rizz_goat1492]

Me:sees this Also me:hides phone because is going to trampoline park soon and really wants to go

[@creedstat]

Anyone who sticks a baby on a trampoline probably shouldn't be a parent period

[@sabrhardscope2120]

Well maybe dont bring a 3 year old...

[@veeeeeeee303]

The kid is at the age where they JUST learned how to talk in complete sentences and even WALK well yet you still brought them to a TRAMPOLINE PARK? Sorry but this is some sh*t parenting

[@coolkendamafreak1812]

Exactly

[@RJFlows]

Is it not already really obvious?

[@danieljonesworshipper8]

But I like playing dropkick Also pain is fun

[@Brett_Gamingg]

Well you brand atoddler into a park karen
