While I understand the tactical advantage of staying in your bedroom and waiting for the Police to arrive in some situations it is not practical.

My elderly Mother who suffers form Alzheimer’s stays with me most of the time and I also have three nieces that visit quite often. If the alarm sounded in the middle of the night there is no way to avoid leaving my room to check and secure my family even if it meant running into an intruder.

Now, this does not mean that after securing them I would feel the need to clear the entire house.
