Forced to stay away from my home for one night?

I was threatened today by my wife. Because I couldn't answer the phone at work. I have been getting outside help for her anger management issues for the sake of our 2 year old son.

I reported her nasty texts by taking screenshots and sending them to our case worker. We made a safety plan for me to travel to my parents' home after work tonight. That way my son will be safe with my father in law and won't be witnessing any screaming from her or swearing as she threatened to have a huge fight tonight in the home.

The case worker is weighing up the options of whether or not to report this to the authorities. They won't take my son off me as I have demonstrated my son's well being is being put first. Although it will be argued that he is not going to see me and will be wondering where I am tomorrow morning. I will miss him so much too.

I will speak first with my case worker to decide if I should go back there before work or not. I could at least see the unit and pick up a clean shirt before work.

Either way, the psychological abuse has now been revealed and she must get help or our marriage is going to end.

Has anyone else been a victim of domestic violence and forced to stay away from home??
