Our new PPOR has a large terraced backyard, including an unfenced section which backs onto a public bushland area. None of the neighbours are fenced, so its like having a large playing field for a backyard. We would like to keep it that way at this stage.
We are planning to put our trampoline and swingset down there. The trampoline is a very large one with a net around it. Its very appealing to jump on! Its not visible from the house.
My only concern is the risk of neighbourhood children getting hurt on it, since it will be accessible, not only to our direct neighbours, but also to people going on bushwalks.
Do you think we should be concerned? Should we put a sign on it to say something like "jump at your own risk"? ........ maybe children play so rarely outdoors anymore that no-one will ever use it!
