A nine-year-old boy was threatened with an axe in front of his family when robbers burst into their home demanding cash and car keys.
Rajinder Auluk, 40, said his son no longer wanted to live in the house after the attack in Great Barr, Birmingham, on Monday evening.
West Midlands Police have launched an appeal to help catch the robbers who were also wielding sledgehammers.
Mr Auluk said his son fears they will return to kill him and his family.
Police said the robbers threatened the boy, whose name has not been released, in front of Mr Auluk, his wife Baljit, 45, and their older son, 16-year-old Jay, at their Newton Road home.
The men tried to get away in both family cars, a Nissan Pulsar GTR and a Mercedes CLK, but abandoned the Mercedes on the road outside the home, police said.

Mr Auluk said the family had just finished eating when they heard a loud crash at the front door.
"Suddenly an explosion hit me in the face as these men with axes and sledgehammers came piling through the door," he said.
"I said 'take what you want' but they carried on shouting and held an axe to my youngest's neck.
"It was true panic, I was angry and frightened but my main concern was what they were going to do to him, I thought he was going to cut him."
Police have been unable to trace the offenders and detectives have been carrying out house-to-house enquiries and trawling CCTV footage.
Det Con Derek Cole said: "This was a truly horrendous ordeal for the family and had complete disregard for the victims, holding an axe to a young boy's neck in front of his terrified family.
"There will be people out there who know who is responsible for this robbery and I would also directly appeal to them to do the right thing and come forward."
