We all have worries about people who will show up at our doorstep when SHTF.
I am thinking here about family members or friends that we know will be problematic when they show up. Either they are complete burdens without any real values in a truly hard situation or they might even possibly be a danger for us.
So what do we do with those folks?

What do they mean to us?
If they are friends, and they are not worth taking in when they show up then they are probably not real friends to you. If they are family then the situation is a bit different, because, for family, it is often worth the effort to try to make something “useful” from them. SHTF makes bonds stronger and more important, and usually there, is no stronger bond than your own blood.
But again, it is the thing of mentality and it may be different in a different part of the world.
What does reality look like?
When it comes to SHTF and what we expect, it almost always looks a bit different than we imagined it.
It is like that with the kind of people we are gonna cooperate and maybe live with when SHTF.
During our physical courses, we have different types of people as students, and often on a course, we have at least one student who is completely different from the majority.
Let’s say we have 5 students who are in good shape, physically in good condition, or skilled.
And then we have at least one who is out of shape or a bit less skilled. Or a student who is stubborn, or wants to play on his own.
And then, since we play a lot with group dynamics, we have students in situations where they are saying to us things like: “We can not finish the task, or be brilliant at the task because of that guy, his poor perfomance (or bad shape, or skills or no will to learn or whatever).”
We as a instructors say to the students, “Then imagine that person is a your father, mother, or that when SHTF your girlfriend shows up at your door with her old aunt. Are you are going to shoot them or learn to operate with them?”.
