As an Eagle Scout, you did good.
Knowing how to survive in an emergency is critical, and you taught them all the tools they need. You did good.
The thing about tools, however, is that you can't control how others use them. This goes for every tool, be it a car, skis, a hammer, or a gun. You can teach how to use them safely and properly, but you cannot control another person's actions.
However, if their family life is this bad, there's other problems that need addressed that you are most likely not qualified to handle. If she was going to run away, she was going to do it regardless of what you taught. You gave her tools to take better care of herself during that, however, which is a good thing. I'd rather have a runaway who knows how to not die than one who grabs their Switch and perfume and treks off into the wilderness.
