It's true that we all have the right to make a mistake. But that doesn't mean that it won't come with a big price. In this case, the handgun is the thing that will almost guarantee the survival of the boy and the son. Even though they may only have one bullet left, it is the best use of defense that they have against whatever might want to come at them. And the boy just so happens to make the vital mistake of leaving it back at the shore of the sea while the father was in the water. Even though it brought no serious consequences, this is the sort of mistake that could have meant the end for the two of them.
Another thing that cost them was going out at night. In any situation, this is the worst time to travel. This is the time where you're tired, probably hungry, and in need for rest. This is the time where you have to settle down to regain strength. But they simply keep on pushing. Their mistake was to abandon the shelter at the shore where they would be sure to keep save even if it had been checked very recently.
Truth be told, these two are a one and a half man wolf pack. Though small, one cannot live without the other. And though they have to endure to get through things, I find them to be too soft to survive for long. That is a mistake I found the father to have made. He has let the kid be too soft. Though he loves him and would never do anything to put him in harm's way, it look like he has let the kid remain soft. I understand his mistake since they are both new to this world. But I don't see the kid surviving long without the father even if he does live to obtain a greater age.
