Letter Re: Kids and Home Security
Jim::
I have some observations on home security where there are children under the
roof:
I have given my kids two new directives.
1) Every time they enter the house, they must now shout out their name and
lock the door behind them. I did this because I realized that I was getting
desensitized to the sounds of
my
front door opening...
2) If they hear me say "Hit the ground!" they immediately do just
that, no excuses.
If I ever need to discharge a weapon in my house I want to decrease the odds
of a bullet hitting them. It goes without saying that you should manipulate
your position and the background positions to keep your loved one's from being
downrange.
For the kids, it's a game. I'll say it every once in a while to keep them on
their toes. "You can be going to the bathroom or have a glass of milk
in your hands, I don't care. If I say to "hit the ground", then [you
immediately]
hit the ground." - SF
