Do I think it's damaging if a kid sees a deer die when they're really young? How do you get your kids interested in eating game meat? How do you get kids engaged around gardens, right?
Like how to, in my view, it's how to get your kids radically engaged with nature because a couple of reasons. If you're listening to this, you probably like to hang out outside.
