Family Safety Kit

Last 2007, I was offered a higher position in my company that would need me to move from Boston to Montpelier. Because of the weak economy, I took the step-up with my family’s support and we relocated to Vermont.

Being in a strange place prompted us to gather a family safety kit even if my new occupation could pay for a better house in an untroubled area. We wanted to get the top defense systems out there. It was better to be safe than sorry.

I began by having a wireless security system installed along with an entry alarm against glass breakage. I would emphasize that we got our son involved in building the family safety kit right off the bat.

This was so that Jude would be able to handle himself when he faces the world on his own. He was to internalize the importance of a family safety kit and search for protective gadgets with us.

Then aged 7, Jude had begun to venture out on his own so I introduced a pool alarm at home specifically for his safety. After I purchased a second car, I bought a driveway alarm.

My wife and I had been lifelong Bostonians up to that point, and having lived smack in the middle of a busy city, had complete appreciation for the importance of having a family safety kit against burglary, theft and potentially dangerous house help.

We were never without portable alarms that were versatile enough to function as entryway alarms early in our married life. We even had mini PIR alarms back then. Presently, we leaned more toward alarms that had motion detectors.

This new position keeps me so pre-occupied that in the wake of hiring help who works for us 24/7, we threw in hidden cameras, intruder alarms and diversion safes. Stocking up on residential security tools never seemed like a better idea than right now.
