I have worked in the field of mental illness as a case worker. And today I work in security too. Although you can make a case to explain your actions, the fact that your kids, your wife, and anybody who's too you your too paranoid is evidence of a neurosis. Your actions are not justified even by identify theft. If you can't trust your wife with the network password, then why would you sleep with someone in the same house as the knives? Dude go find a padded cell for life. And keep the computer inside with you, no Cat5 or wireless, and keep it turned off.

Consider the following and seek help:
