Andrea Parnham, mitigating, said Haque was neglected as a child and has ADHD.
Ms Parnham said the father-of-one has applied to do an Open University politics degree while in prison and hopes to start studying in September.
Sentencing Haque, Judge Simon Phillips QC said: "As he was on the floor in the kitchen, such was the terror you instilled in him that, while you were distracted, he took the extreme measure of going to the top of the house to the third floor and climbing through a skylight on to the roof - he feared you would kill him if he didn't."
