We have a family of 6 and always take extra kids along. I have learned that as kids reach teen age years they want to tent it outside regardless of weather. for what it's worth

I haven't found that to be the case. If any of my kids want to sleep in a tent, I would let them. That has happened exactly one time in 14 years of camping. I provide a nice and dry, climate controlled, sort of soft bed; they seem to choose that option over the damp, cold hard ground (even with a air mattress that usually won't stay inflated all night).
