First he needs to see his GP. Sometimes underlying heart problems cause this type of thing. Preferably, go as a couple and discuss your concerns. Counselling, particularly an anger management program would seem appropriate. Your GP should be able to refer you to what is available. If you want to stay in the marriage, tell him that he needs to change his behaviour because you are not prepared to risk any negative outcomes with regard to you or the kids. Make sure he understands that it has to stop now. Prepare an exit strategy and do not be afraid to use it. Never put yourself or the kids at risk. Violence tends to escalate.
As for your daughter. She needs to know she can always voice her concerns to you and that you will listen. Show her that violence is unacceptable, you don't want her to accept it in the future. We all make mistakes, especially when we are young. Let her know she has your support and go from there.
