Of course, but I'll be damned if I let my brother sock my mother in the nose just because he's family. Not that I'm walking around looking for a fight. On the contrary.
And if it were my specific responsibility to protect people, it would be foolish for me to become out of shape, unequipped, sloppy, and inattentive. Staying prepared has "costs", of course. That doesn't mean every minute of cardio, training session, or watchful minute is a waste. It would be if someone else already fulfilled that responsibility or if I were egregiously overpreparing or mispreparing somehow.
