Shari’s Reviews > The Adventurer's Son: A Memoir > Status Update

As a mother who has raised two intrepid outdoor adventures, this book hit home in a heartbreaking way. Who is the better parent: the one who teaches their kids to explore the wild backcountry knowing there are risks or the one who keeps them safe in a bubble and doesn’t lie awake at night worrying? I don’t think either Dial or I have the answers, but I also don’t think we have many regrets, either.
