What do you do when a child changes your equations / plans? I've always prepped based on a probability / risk matrix. For the real "end of the world as you know it" scenarios my calculations have been based on my key family members not being able to survive long term without pharmaceutical manufacturing (dependent on items that have a short shelf life).
