@Touche

i wanted to know does anyone of any situations where the therapy and/or family intervention improved the situation to the extent that the couple to able to live together in a civil way cos of the kids???

Yes, I know couples who managed to solve their issues enough to live a civil life for the sake of kids. HOWEVER, the situations I know of…the father never threatened to murder the child or any other family members.

Given the fact that your husband has actually made threats against your mother and child (who btw is also HIS child! )…I strongly urge you to focus on the reality of your situation. We all have dreams/fantasies of how we want our life to be. Unfortunately those visions don’t always come true. Your #1 focus right now should be to make sure that you and your child are not in any danger.
