The husband has been drinking and has ordered his wife out of the house, but he has two small children in the house. The wife tells you that the conflicts have been going on for several years, that she is tired of it, and she is leaving him. When you approach the house, it is evident the husband is still in the Crisis Stage, threatening to kill the kids to punish the wife. Is this a hostage situation? Is it negotiable? What techniques would you use to deal with the husband?
