This is making me so sad becuase I love him but I will never be able to keep him if he continues to act this way. how should i go about this? should i have the kids ignore him for a few days? should I just have them speak to him and not pet him for a few days? I really want to make this better because he is part of my family but I just can not put my kids in danger.
Go to the Vet to make sure nothing is hurting him.

Then do some reading about agression. Do some training with Max and the kids. Teach Max commands, and make the kids have Max do some commands before they touch or play with him.
