Your dad is a marine? You have camped? Aha! Join a good scout troop! The Boy Scout motto is "Be prepared". That will break the prepping ice with your family, get you in good shape and hopefully get your family involved.
Also, welcome to prepper forums.

I understand completely... I wouldn't abandon mine either. but then again.. I don't live in a city. I am prepped.. and I am the head of the house. you want an honest answer of your survival probability in an EMP... you will survive until your preps run out or someone tries to take them... same as the rest of us.. it is just that many of us 1.have more preps. 2.don't live in a city and thus have less people to defend them from. 3 are better able/equipped to defend said preps...

Watch your language and your tone, boy. Where I come from youngsters are seen and not heard.
We want young people thinking before they respond. There may come a time and a place that leaving your family to get help may end up saving all of your lives. Think!

The ready.gov, red cross and fema sites might even mail booklets to you free. I'm not at a computer now so not sure. Check it out yourself.

That's not what he was saying, and you know that so don't pretend otherwise.
However, I'll try to refrain from cursing. Even when outrageous things are said.

Must be nice being so prepared. I still got a long ways to go before I am at that level, but I decided to start working towards it. In the mean time though I would like to know some ways to make do in my current circumstances. So I am asking you all for advice.

Ha! I stopped playing "pretend" a long time ago. Although I do sometimes fantasize that all people under 18 years old had their mouths stitched closed.
But thanks for refraining from using bad language. Carry on...

So you weren't playing pretend after all... That's kinda sad.

Heading home ,out of the city any way I can . But heading home

New life as a house husband, major shift in duties.
