Do I have the right to enter into someone house without permission if my child is in there?

Here's the situation

Main persons:

  • my daughter Maria, 16 years old
  • my daughter's friend Mario, over 18 years old

My daughter was asked by her friend Mario to hang out at someone's house.

At 1:00 am, while I and her oldest brother (20 years old) were already resting, someone knocked on my door and said that Mario (already drunk) was getting my daughter to hangout at someone's house. So I woke up her oldest brother to go into that house to get his sister.

When we arrived at the house, while we were knocking we heard a noise of singing and like partying, but it suddenly stopped when they heard us.

My son looked into the window and saw his sister, he felt angry and without thinking, he jumped through the window to get in, he opened the door for me and let me in. When we were inside the house, we found people were already gone except for Mario and my daughter.

Mario faked sleeping, while my daughter was sitting next to him. So my son woke up Mario and said "If I saw you there, outside, I'm gonna punch the hell your face".

By the way, the parents of the child (owner of the house where the incident happened) were not at home, and the child of the owner is under age of 16.

So, me and my son were trespassing and threatened someone.

Do we have the right to do that? When my son says "I'm gonna punch your face when I saw you there" is that considered a threat?

PS: This is for educational purpose only, and the situation happened in real life. I'm not in the situation, but due to curiosity I wanted to know what my rights are when this kind of things happen to me, considering I am the father of Maria.

UPDATE

Thanks for commenting and those who wrote an answer. After reading those comment and answer I realize that I had a mistake for not clarifying my question.

WHICH COUNTRY

These situation happened in Philippines, but I would like to know if the situation also happen in US and India, so three countries.(US and India is optional, I'm just curious).

THE PARTY

It wasn't a party after all, it's just a hang out leading by MARIO.

THE WINDOW

The window is not something like a glass, it's an open window, not lock at all.

WHY DO I ASKED THESE QUESTION IF I ALREADY KNOW THAT THE FATHER AND SON IS TRESPASS

I think this is about protecting the child.Well, I'm currently not in the age of having a son/daughter or family, but you you know, if I we're in the situation maybe because of wanting to protect my daughter/sister, I will do the same(I'm not sure at all). In addition, I would like to know the possible defense that I can make when this kind of situation happen to me. Anyway, sorry for bad English.

So, what I actually want to know is

1: That thing could be consider as a threat?

2: What are the possible defense can I have in these kind of situation?
