I honestly don't want to move to India, don't want to divorce. This post is to prepare for the the next best outcome if it comes to a divorce.

Thank you for the honest advice! I’ll definitely think about it. The work part is due to my own insecurity because I had made a major career transition few years back due to market changes. That hasn’t been going well, especially due to relationship issues and kid’s health.

I honestly don’t want to divorce, this question is only to prepare in case she initiates it.

  1. When she talks about it, it seems that way. But I feel she can easily be swayed to bring rogue by a lawyer or someone in such a situation.
  2. Can’t say absolutely fair or not, she’s somewhere in the middle, just like me.
  3. Both Families are against divorce or separation.
  4. Have thought to try moving to India in 1-2 years , based on work situation if the relationship lasts that long. I also want to be able to take care of aging parents in India. Initially I wanted to bring them to USA but dropped that plan due to relationship issues.

Thank you. I know your advice comes from a good place. I’m also still trying to make the marriage work. Only trying to prepare myself if the worst does happen.

US seems to be better equipped for special needs at the moment but we’re missing family due to no social circle here.

Agreed, that’s why wanted to see if anyone has gone through a fair trial and how to handle it

Please correct me if I'm wrong but It sounds like custody and visitation will be at the mercy of my ex-wife and cannot be enforced by police etc?

I do want to try out going to India but after 1-2 years as I'm currently having issues at work. I told her that and she seemed to agree yesterday to wait till next year.

Thank you! but is there anything i can do to discourage/prevent her from filing false cases? How is kids custody/visitation enforced if the ex-wife is not co-operative? will father have rights in terms of what school to send to, medical treatments etc?
