Yes, this is because if there is a fire blocking the one exit then you are trapped in the house or building until the FD can arrive and hopefully get everyone out safely. There are bars for windows that have a knock out on them that in the event of a emergency, from the inside you can open the bars and get out. I would recommend installing those if you are going to install bars on your windows.

How do you Exit rooms in case of a fire drill?
During a fire drill you should use the normal exits of the room and proceed to the exit from the building or other safe place of refuge. If the normal exit is blocked, you should use a second means of exit, either through another door or through a window, if it is safe to do so. Some drills require you to find a second exit as a method of teaching you how to act when a real fire might block your normal exit. However, it is never wise to put anyone in actual danger, much less injure anyone, during a drill.
