Urban legends. People who break in, want to steal. They go for empty / vacant houses.
That's why they mostly occur during summer/vacation & day time. They don't want confrontation. They don't want attention. A good security/alarm system is what you want, and good locks for your windows / doors.
If you read the news, you'll find out family slaughters mostly happen when a man in the house goes crazy (elder son, father, grand father) with a gun, hammer, knife. Imo, any good mother should make sure there is no gun around an unstable / depressive husband.

I've also read plenty of accounts where people break into houses, in broad daylight with people at home so the first part of your "argument" is invalid.
