Have you ever seen the movie “Home Alone”? It is a movie about a family that goes on a vacation to Paris and accidentally leaves one of the sons at home by himself. He is really not old enough to be at home for an extended period of time, but somehow starts figuring out how to take care of all of his needs. He had done something bad at the beginning of the movie so he thought his family had been taken away while he was asleep as punishment. Anyway, most of the movie the boy is trying to stay away from two burglars that have been casing out the neighborhood, burglarizing homes. They keep trying to break into the house, but the boy keeps coming up with different ways to trick the burglars or hurt them to keep them from getting into the house. I had always thought that if they had just had an alarm system like we got through HoME ALArm Systems, then he would have not had to go through all that trouble to keep the bad guys away. But then, they would not have had a good premise to make a movie out of would they?
