OP asked for a recommendation, not a childish diatribe.
But here's a snippet for you:
ROSEMONT, Ill., June 7, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- As the school year draws to a close, thousands of children across the country will take on a familiar chore: mowing the lawn. June is National Safety Month, and three national medical organizations are warning families that the routine task of lawn mowing can be extremely dangerous to children, the operator, and those nearby if proper safety precautions aren't taken.
Sadly, 253,000 people were treated for lawn mower-related injuries in 2010, nearly 17,000 of them children under age 19, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission reports. Lawn mower-related injuries are up 3 percent since 2009.
So do you want to take that risk when Johnny from next door is out their mowing your lawn? It's not something to take lightly and the risks are real and quantifiable.
If you want to be dense (I'm thinking of Pb right now, but I digress) go right ahead but at least be informed. How much of your assets are you willing to risk? That's the question you need to ask yourself....
