You're a perfect example of what jerf is talking about. "I'll get the dog and you get the kids and we'll meet at Aunt Sue's place" is "an emergency plan." Stockpiling 3 months of rations is more prepping than 90% of Americans are likely to have ever done. But because of the stigma of "crazy preppers", you don't want to call it prepping.

That stigma is a problem. People need to be prepared for both short-term emergencies and long-term disasters, and they need to stop being made to feel that doing so makes them social outcasts.
