That is why if you choose to put in a security system be sure to include motion sensors and a glass break sensor in your system.
Actually another solution is to get ADT's newer "shock sensors" ... if the glass is banged or shocked (ie does not have to be broken ...someone banging against it is good enough) the alarm will trigger.
