Billyg, a Sumter county sheriff reserve police officer came to our house to go over it for security and make suggestions. He showed us something called an
F clamp available at Home Depot. For any window you want to leave open, you install two. They make the window very difficult to pry, and you can open them and lock them with the F clamps. Obviously you can open them more tan about half a foot or someone could reach in and disable the clamps. But there is something you can do.
