In the fact situation described by you, it is advisable that you and your husband seek help from a family counselor because the actual problem is not coming through from the narration of your facts. Further, if you want to leave and go away, usually it is the father who is the natural guardian however they cannot snatch the children away from you because while deciding the custody of the children, the paramount consideration is the welfare of the children. If the total all round development of the children is with you, the court will not take away the custody if you take both the child with you. Furthermore, usually for small children, the courts insist for a joint custody until and unless one of the parent themselves doesnt want to meet the children.
Moreover, if your husband is given only 1% share in the business then this fact is alarming since you have two child. it is not understood from your facts as to what was your husband doing before he joined family business. It may so be that by behaving in such a manner, they are trying to torture you so you ask for divorce and not pay alimony etc while the divorce decree is being passed.
