My brother and I always fight over tent size for family camps.
He wants a huge cabin tent, but I prefer smaller ones to keep us close. It leads to tension every trip. How do you handle gear disputes with relatives?

You guys always fight over tent size... but come on, is it worth the tension? Camping's about family time, not the size of the tent.

Yeah, @murphy.zara has it right. The best trips happen when you stop fussing over gear and just focus on being together.

When you say camping's about family time, not the size of the tent, you're spot on, @murphy.zara. In my family, we learned that a huge tent just gives everyone more room to spread out and ignore each other. Pick a tent that fits everyone snugly, and you'll actually talk instead of hiding in corners. The best memories come from being close, not from having extra space for your gear. Trust me, after a few trips, you'll see the big tent is just more to set up and take down.
