Seems Jesus lends support to the idea of protecting one's household. And if He allows us to not have our house broken up, then I would think He'd not want our spouses or children hurt either. Seems Jesus also said that if anyone hurts one of these little ones they should have a millstone hung around their neck and be cast into the sea.
I can and have turn my other cheek, but I can also protect what the Lord has blessed me with.

Lord bless you my Brother, Matt 24:43 is speaking of watching for the signs of the time, and keeping vigilant (all spiritual and symbolic). Protect what you have but don't use deadly force. "Except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain."
