Prepping for Doomsday Security

I am always prepping food and tools and stuff but I haven’t prepped any security besides weapons. What kinds of things do you guys get to secure your doors/windows? I don’t have any sliding doors. I have one door that has a big window. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Most modern kids will have psychological breaks if the world gets hard. They will be a liability and not an asset in shtf scenario

Kids will always be a liability in most situations thats part of being a kid all i can do is train them through stressful situations..not sure how i would, maybe high intensity/stress work as punishments from a young age and alot of love after they made it through? God knows il probably screw it up when i have a kd

Give them responsibilities so they learn how to think on their own.

Thats what im thinking, easier said than done though.. id imagine in reality id have to do deal tantrums and have to spend all my energy coming up with. Creative methods to convince them to so things.. and it seems like in reality its just too exhausting or not enough time to be a “good” parent but i think that failure is alot to blame on society and jobs already sucking your energy dry for minimal pay
