OH MAN. Several years back i was babysitting my 4 year old niece. I was pretty much trying to be the cool uncle and letting her do what she pleased. She was bouncing on the bed which was by a upstairs window. She bounced too hard, smacked against the window and knocked it out. I grabbed hold of her right before she tumbled out. She found it quite funny, i pretty much pissed my pants on the spot.

Why you asked this question when you pretty well know the answer? Your just afraid of the consequences it will bring the children. Don't. Children like to play and have fun and one of them is jumping on the bed, like a trampoline. For sure they will know that when they fall it will hurt them, but the excitement in jumping is far more inviting than the falling off. Child's thinking.

cuz it's fun! I'm 24 but when I'm on vacation in a hotel the first thing I do is bounce on the bed. Children love to have fun and do many things that they know will hurt them. Buy your kids a trampoline with a net around it. That way they can jump all they want and wont get hurt.

I don't know but i would just let them because when they do fall off and get hurt they will understand why you dont want them doing that. Or if they brake the bed then take it away and make the child sleep in a sleeping bag. Thats what he'll get for disobeying.

The same reason we adults do many things we shouldn't; it's fun. We shouldn't do donuts in the snow, but some of us still do. We should go bungy jumping, but some of us still do. I like going roller skating and ice skating. I know I could get hurt, but I still do it. People do things that make them feel good. Children are just doing something natural; having fun.

Because they are kids. They don't think ahead that far. They are only interested in the fun of the jumping.
