Not sure on the age of the children. but do believe they are teenage or so.Poor kids! Are they young? Nothing besides something happening to my kids/BH scares me more than home invasion. Around here, it usually comes down to the invader knowing or suspecting drugs or $ are kept in the house. I have neither (lol).
We live in a fairly small town. My hubby works with a man who is the victim of a home invasion. Can"t seem to find it on our local news. Anyway he and his wife are both in the hospital. She was pistol whipped and he was shoot in the kidneys and liver. All because he opened the door when a woman said her car was broken down. So he went to help her. He got back home got another knock on the door and this all happen. Only 8 o'clock in the evening. Scary makes you want to not help people. I pray he and his family will be ok. No news about his children so far. This world is getting crazier and crazier. Thats I just needed to get this off my mind.
I'm pleased he is doing better and I hope they'll catch up with who is responsible. Thanks for the update.just a little update. the man has been released from the hospital. Will take quite sometime to heal but doing well. Suspects have not yet been caught.
With the right training, hopefully so. But who knows if this individual has weapons in his house and knows how to use them? It's almost a bad gamble to open one's door to any stranger at all. When my parents moved in I maintained the habit of keeping the doors locked for their protection. I still do it now despite their being gone. I guess if it's someone I do not know, unless they're in a USPS or UPS uniform and there's a corresponding vehicle in the driveway [dooryard], if they say they have an emergency, need to use the phone, I'll be more than happy to call 911 for them.That event would have most likely ended very differently at my house. I hope I never have to find out.....
