If you can tell that he is going to become violent, try to have it happen where there are no weapons or objects that he can use to harm you, and where you can get away.

Use your best judgement. Do whatever you need to do to calm him down so that you and your children are safe.

If you need to get away from him, think about how you can escape. Where is the safest place to go?
