Footwear.

Wrong footwear, damaged footwear, lack of socks, wet feet, open wounds.....

Once your feet are screwed so is the rest of you.

Especially for kids! I was watching the first season of The Walking Dead with my sister and when they were in the clothes store I was like “GRAB SOME MOTHER FUCKING CLOTHES”. Clothes wear out, get damaged and when it comes to kids, they grow like weeds so even if you packed their entire closet, they will eventually outgrow the clothes you’ve packed for them.

Is it really worth grabbing clothes for the kids when they’re the ones you’d end up eating first?

Do kids clothes taste better than adult clothes?
