Teach ‘Em Now, Thank Yourself Later Here’s the truth I learned the hard way—kids don’t magically know how to survive a power outage, a busted water main, or a weekend in the woods when the lighter won’t work. They’re not born knowing how to build a fire, bandage a cut, or navigate without GPS. And they sure don’t learn it by watching cartoons or scrolling on a tablet. If we want our kids to be capable, calm, and resourceful in an emergency, we have to teach them. Now don’t get me wrong—this isn’t about raising little doomsday preppers with camo face paint and MREs in ...

We are used to a world in which our homes are supplied with fresh water, gas, and electricity. We’re used to having our waste removed and our sanitary needs met. These are all things we’ve come to expect, but what would happen if they were taken away? Flooding, hurricanes, and pandemics are affecting areas we once thought were safe from disaster—we shouldn’t take anything for granted.

what if the disaster is truly a big and longer-lasting one? Would you be okay with just those three items? Or would you need to have a few more things to survive in the long run? Ideally, disaster preparation is much more than just that. A true preparation would be where you learn a few basic survival skills, master them, practice them, and become a pro at them. To be truly successful, you need to take a comprehensive approach and look at the broader picture, and that is exactly what I have done in this book.

Are you familiar with "situational awareness"? This book will cover what you need to know to gain a complete understanding of this concept.

Disaster can strike at any time. Sometimes, as with a hurricane, you may get some notice; other times, in the case of a fire or an earthquake, you'll receive no warning at all. Most of the time, the disaster will leave your home and the surrounding area more or less intact. I've been in several earthquakes that damaged the furniture and windows of my apartment, but otherwise, everything was fine.
