Husband wouldn’t get alarm

Guest post by Gerard Mcdaniel

For years, I have been telling my husband I wanted to get an alarm and he keeps telling me it is not necessary. Well, I think last week he started regretting all those years of telling me no. We had gone to a Christmas party and were gone for a few hours. When we came home, our house had been robbed. Our television was missing; all our computers and most of my jewelry had also been taken. My heart just sunk. I knew we needed total alarm systems to feel protected, but my husband kept turning me down. It has been a long time since I felt so much regret. I should have pushed harder and I should have made him get it. However, I just went with his answer and didn’t put my foot down. While I want to be mad at him, I know there are a lot of things I could have done too. To everyone thinking it won’t happen to them, I thought the same thing and look what happened.
