I realized another reason why it’s so important to take your kids camping: so they learn how to travel with constraints.

I’m taking some youth in a ski trip and these ‘kids’ are in their twenties and don’t know how to prep for a trip, pack essential clothing, be ready to leave on time, how to pack a backpack and a car trunk in last-in-first-out mode, etc. None of these are innate attributes; they have to be learned. We have to teach our kids these things.
