I know of no smoke detectors in garage ceilings... *Perhaps the attic

It is quite easy to smell a fire as little wisps of smoke will be
drawn into
the bedroom from the attic by air leaks and the flow through windows
before it will get into the hallway where the smoke detectors are
located...

For $10, put one in each of the bedrooms. *You are proposing a $10,000
solution to a $50 problem.

I even heard of a recent incident where a woman in a nearby community
attempted to kill herself and successfully killed her 8-year-old son
with
carbon monoxide fumes from lighting up a Hibachi grill inside a
bedroom,
neither the smoke detector nor the required CO detector were activated
in the home... *So don't assume that a smoke or CO detector will be
able
to alert you to ALL dangers or fires in your home which could kill
you...

You are correct, a CO detector will not alert me to a mentally ill parent.
