But the anger management course might be successful. You say things have calmed down. Are you sure you are not jumping the gun a bit? Could you not be supportive whilst encouraging them to work things out together?

She is entitled to stay in the family home until her youngest child leaves full time education. But that assumes she wants to do this, and that she can get a bad tempered man (a bully?) to move out and do his bit to support her and the child. But whatever she wants to do, I would not advise selling the house until a legal agreement about divorce and maintenance has been reached.Or making any other rushed financial decisions at this difficult time. Get legal advice is what I would advise.

My daughter's marriage is over. Her OH is an angry and bad tempered man, there is no future for them, what should she do first? Their son is a toddler. The husband is going to anger-management therapy. The situation seems to have calmed down recently. They have a mortgage, should they sell the house first, (does he have to agree as it is a joint mortgage), should she go for Mediation to enable her to file for divorce? Money is tight, until building works in our own house are complete (hopefully within 3 months) my daughter and grandson have nowhere to comfortably go. What should we advise her to do?
