Camping with young kids was hard, but well worth it. We learned so much (the hard way) that we wanted to share.
As with anything I publish, feel free to share this with anyone who might find it useful. And I’m happy to talk more if you or someone you know is interested in planning a family camping trip.
I am so grateful to Riley for teaching me to be a better father and person. He taught me about the slipper slope of control and abuse.
I want to remember that the goal of parenting is not avoiding my own sadness.
One day our sons will grow out of their find-joy-in-all-places mindset, and it will be my fault.
The point here is not that I am cured of shouting (I’m not). The point is to share what happened after I started shouting less.
