Hello. I went to US for further studies and started working there. I got married according to Hindu act in India (both social and registered) and both my husband and I are working in the US. I have never wanted to settle down in the US and had told my husband before my marriage. My parents have nobody except me.
My in-laws were constantly passing hurtful remarks about our not having a child. I was beaten up once quite badly. I had considered separating, but realized that I was pregnant. I did not file a case with police. I gave birth to a child and my husband moved to another state for work in the first month of the child. My parents came to support me and help patch things up. I decided to give our marriage a second chance. I joined my husband and started working again after some time. Though my husband did not beat me again, it was a cold relation. My husband is extremely strict with our child at times, in the name of discipline and I am afraid that she would get scared at a drop of a pin. Meanwhile, my father expired after a long ailment and my mother is all alone with no relatives. I have always wanted to come back to India, unlike my husband. I am considering filing for divorce, so that I can end this agony, but I am worried that I might lose my child (being a US citizen).
Could you please guide me if it would be possible to file in India and live here with my child, who is now 3 years old?
