Thinking About a Home Security System…

Gone are the days when we could leave our doors unlocked.  Everyday the news seems to get worse and worse with burglaries, killings, and other acts of violence.  While I can’t protect my family while they are out on their own, one place I can protect them is when they are home with me.  With three kids and so many crazy people out there, I worry.  It probably doesn’t help that I watch a lot of true crime shows which show so many crimes that don’t even make the news.

Home protection is something my husband and I have been thinking about.  While we do live in a nice neighborhood, bad things can happen anywhere.  As far as home protection goes there are two things I can think of:  owning a gun or a home security system.  A gun is not something I would consider.  Honestly I am scared of them and would probably hurt myself or my family trying to use it.  Yes I know I could take classes on gun safety but I prefer to consider other options.  So my other option is a home security system.  I have been browsing around online and there are so many options to consider and I am confident we can find an affordable plan.

A Wireless Security System would definitely give me peace of mind that I am doing a little something extra to keep my family safe.  Of course it would only work if we turn it on everyday which I know will be something we will have to get used to.  I am totally clueless about them though as I don’t know anyone who has one so it is definitely something I need to research since I don’t want to be replacing it anytime soon.

What do you think of home security systems?

  • An even better idea is to form a neighborhood watch group- surely you know someone in your family or at work/on your block who has military experience? Ask him ( or her) for assistance-they'll be flattered & more than willing to help, especially now with mass killings happening recently. By the way, if you have kids, consider adopting a dog: Kids with pets are less likely to have allergies later in life, you'll also have a canine guard who will be on watch 24/7.
