the problem with that logic is as they get bigger so does there stuff, which is possibly a debatable point but the killer blow is as they get bigger they have an opinion on what they want to take...and it tends to be alot more than you want them to take (this observation is based on experience, my other car is now a VW transporter van, I will caveat that by saying we do alot of camping/mountain biking etc so end up taking loads of stuff)
