Chances of a person with ill intent breaking into her home are slim. While still possible, it's very uncommon (also depending on her neighborhood). My point is that with a bat, at least she will get a little peace of mind.
I mean a bat's not bad but... I prefer my revolver. It has a longer range than a bat, and has stopping power.
the bat may work if you could sneak up on the bad guy and he or she doesn't wrestle it away from you. but if that happens then the bad guy is in your house and has your bat.
as for peace of mind... eh. to me it's a bit like having a security blanket. it just makes you feel safe without actually doing anything effective for your safety
