After about a year and a half of hounding my parents I have got them to admit that they would like to start preparing for when the SHTF. My mom called me the other day and said her and my dad want to sit down, and have me help them prepare. what guns to buy, food, locations to meet, B.O.B.S and so on. I think it took them seeing my uncle who is now almost completely of the grid and self sufficient this past weekend, to see that things are getting a little too real to ignore any longer. I am only 23 but I have been into survivalism for a while now and it makes me very proud to see them join me in this. I just hope they stick with it and see that it never hurts to be ready for when the SHTF.
