Unrest In The USA Has Me Preparing For Civil War | MY EXTRAORDINARY FAMILY

KRYSTAL is a doomsday prepper. The mom-of-three first started learning how to 'grow and can' food with her grandparents and she has since built on these skills. Krystal said: “I prep for anything whether the grid was to collapse and the power turns off, if there’s another pandemic, civil war, civil unrest or World War Three.” Krystal has built up a stock of medical supplies, materials for protection, electrical goods and enough food to last the family of five for over a year. She has spent over $20,000 prepping in the last 10 years. Why does she prep? Krystal said: “Unrest in the US has motivated me to be a doomsday prepper.” The content creator teaches her children how to prepare as well as giving tutorials on various aspects of prepping to her followers online. She receives negativity about the cost and necessity of the extent of her prepping. Krystal said her three children - Lilah, Kaylie and Colton ‘love’ and ‘thrive’ knowing what to do in the event of an emergency. Krystal said prepping isn’t all ‘doom and gloom.’ She added: “I prepare for the worst thing to happen but I’m always hoping for the best.”

First rule of prepping. Don’t tell anyone you are prepping.

[danielreeves]

Teaching the kids to grow food and survive is priceless.

[lionandvaever]

It’s better to be prepared than to be panicking if something big were to happen. Better to be safe than sorry

[NJTKC]

I think it is amazing she is passing on all of these skills to her children

[QueenNat]

I applaud her for everything she is doing. But I wouldn't share with the world. ❤️

[DuaneRogers-shsl]

This young lady is very smart by having food security for her family

[crissypratt]

It’s insurance!! That’s the best way it can be described. It’s also peace of mind. Krystal is an amazing teacher and has built a supportive community with her willingness to share her knowledge.

Ma'am it's good to be prepared but the only thing that you did wrong is by showing what's where and where is the access... This is an undeniable truth in this world that the less someone stranger know about you and your things the better

[MariaAnastassi]

She is a beautifully positive and caring, loving, mother/wife/person. Go girl!

[robertfox]

You are living with your eyes wide open. Not like so many with their head stuck in the sand. I think it’s incredibly smart to realize that we are in a completely different situation than we were in just 10 years ago! Keep taking care of your family! 👍👍

I actually do not see anything wrong with this. It is Her family and she’s entitled to raise and protect them however she sees fit.

[Overitall]

This is called adulting. We all need to do a bit of this.

[NachoJoshas]

I've been training martial arts and boxing for the last 10 years, not in fear, just to have an extra tool in life. A couple of years ago someone tried to rob me in the road at night, in the middle of nowhere, and I was super cool I didn't even have to fight. If you gain assets for your safety and life quality, you're completely cool. If you are affraid you are done.

[jimlong]

People tell me I was crazy for 25 years. Who looks crazy now? Good luck to you and your family

[andi]

This is not something you share with the world tbh. It’s not wrong or crazy to stock pile for emergencies, but definitely something to keep private.

[mrjlee]

She’s the most sane and wisest person.

[patrickspellman]

For anyone starting out for survival prepping, start with s good backpack or bug out bag, a flashlight and first aid kit, then round up all your camping gear and do an inventory of all your supplies, its a great start!

[Southernpreppermom]

She is really awesome!! She teaches so many people on how to prep I am so blessed to have stumbled upon her TikTok page and have learned so much since I started to following her. I was already prepping to a point but I learned all about other things I should be doing not just food. I hope I can get to the point she is in my home with my family.

[apara]

After what we went through during the begining portion of the pandemic, this doesn't sound too crazy. She is wise to prep. Especially all that's going on in this country now.

[Bunny]

This is what everyone should be doing, because one day its all gonna go down, regardless of whats going on get prepared, cause its coming
