People sometimes ask me whether I ever worry about my children’s safety when we go on wilderness adventures. My answer is, yes, of course. All parents worry; it comes with the territory. But I worry much more that they will not spend enough time outdoors. We live in a society today where everyone spends less and less time in nature, especially children, who will glue themselves to an electronic screen for several hours a day if permitted to do so. My kids are no different.
