| Family Preparedness: Teaching Family Members |
Most people think it improper to spank children, so I have
tried other methods to control my kids, especially when
teaching them emergency preparedness. When they have
one of 'those moments', I found it is effective for me to just
take the child for a car ride and talk. Some say it's the
vibration from the car, others say it's the time away from
any distractions such as TV, Video Games, Computer,
IPod, etc. Either way, my kids usually calm down and stop
misbehaving after they grasp what could really go wrong in
a disaster. Face to face, eye to eye contact helps a lot too.
Its important to teach your children the concept of
emergency preparedness. In an emergency you have no
control over the circumstances around you, you simply
must deal with them as best you can. I've attached a photo
of one of the recent sessions with my son, in case you
would like to use this technique yourself. Move your
mouse over the picture below for another image.

| Why be Prepared? |
It wasnt too long ago, back in 1976 that many of us still
living experienced the break of the Teton Dam. Many are
still troubled by the experience.
"The experience of the Teton flood impressed many Saints
with the need to have something in addition to a year’s
supply: a portable emergency supply that’s ready to be
thrown into the car at a moment’s notice. It should contain
enough water, clothing, equipment, and ready-to-eat food
for the family to survive on for seventy-two hours. Cash and
important documents should also be handy." (See lists in
Essentials of Home Production and Storage, pp. 7, 11.)
Whatever the next challenge, we need not fear if we are
prepared.

| Don't be guided by your fears |
In a recent address to BYU-I
graduates, President Uchtdorf
said, "Don't be guided by your
fears," He said, "Be guided by
the Lord." . His advice is not only
good for graduating college
students in these economic
times, but also for us.
