When my children were young we would camp outside in our back yard. We had a multi-level deck that had an upper deck that was kinda high in the backyard.
One thing you definitely want to watch out for is trouble on the highways. Being an alert, sober, law-abiding driver can reduce your likelihood of problems and even accidents while driving.
Jobs are always a good thing and when you have workplaces that employ many workers that is even better, unless of course you are a person who prefers not to work, but personally I don't advise that route.
