[QUOTE="Shari, post: 166002, member: 1848"] We just got back from a primitive camping trip. We didn't even pack in water - we boiled water from the spring. We stayed up late the first night, but the remainder we were up and down with the sun. Wee difficult child didn't even wet the bed and his behavior was superb 3 of the 4 days. It made me think how his life would be different if we didn't live in a modern/technological world. Granted we weren't going to die in 4 days, but difficult child's attributes were assets on our trip. His energy and stamina were put to good use again and again, gathering firewood, catching crawdads to boil, etc. Was just an eye-opening trip like your power outage was. I think there's something to it. Quite possibly A LOT to it. [/QUOTE]
