just tell them that it is good excersise and that it would get you and your siblings out of the house and not on the couch. tell them that is will help you have more fun and get along better with your siblings.

Get a net around it, Then it won't be so dangerous.

Borrow the neighbours trampoline, and place it directly under the bedroom window. Then call your parents and siblings into the room.

Take the youngest one, and push him/her out of the window, then when he/she bounces back up into view, a few times say ... "See Mom and Dad, Trampolines DO save lives."



You'll be sure to win them over with that one. IF not, just save your money and buy one yourself.

Well I certainly applaud you for all that you've done. It sounds like you've worked you butt off :) But at the end of the day, it's your parents house and their backyard. They may not want a bunch of room being taken up with a trampoline. Maybe ask for you birthday or Christmas to get one, if not, I don't think there's much else you can do. Trust me. I'm 16, and I played on a trampoline once in my entire life for my friends birthday party when I was like 9. I've wanted a trampoline ever since, and my parents have always said no. Even now, I would LOVE a trampoline, but it isn't going to happen. And don't ask too many times or they'll just get annoyed and say no all the time. Best of luck to you!

♥ Offer to pay for half. If you don't have to money, just take a few babysitting jobs or something.



♥ If you say danger is the main issue, tell them that you can get it with safety nets. They really help, I would have fallen off a million times if it weren't for those nets.



♥ Promise not to do any flips of any kind. Sure, they're fun, but there is a ton of other fun stuff you can also do on the trampoline. Just be creative.



♥ If you buy a net and don't do flips, there really isn't a lot of danger. You can't fall off, you can't paralyze your neck. The worst that could probably happen is that you run into someone else and get a few bruises.



♥ Of course, there is still a small chance of something really bad happening. But you also take that chance when you walk, get in a car, fly, bike, etc....

( be causous still) because they can help u from falling off but you can get you leg cought...but tell them that you want a net for it ( serounds the trampoline to keep you from falling off) and that you wont horse play on it..(beating each other up)
