Divorce under mental/iq grounds

Irresponsibleness of a spouse or less maturity and understanding of a spouse or low IQ is no ground for divorce under Indian Laws.

Custody of children is given to the parent with whom the welfare of the children lies.

This irresponsibleness of the wife, for creating 'tension' to husband/ in-laws, is a kind of "Incompatibility between the spouses". 

And, instead of contemplating 'divorse', the two must visit a psychologist/ marriage counsellor.

Invariably, the husband(s0 tend to forget, their own 'acts' which have 'caused' such 'retaliatory/ abnormalities' in their wife's conduct. Initially, the husband must reassure his wife, who is fairly educated, that he truly loves/ trusts her.

It is rightly said, "A gentleman is known by the company he keeps, and a lady is known by the manner in which she is 'teatred'. If the husband/ her in-laws treat the lady with respect, she is bound to reciprocate/ show responsibilities.

Respect cannot be demaned, it can only be earned, ever heard old aged people working as waiters o their DIL?.

I completely agree with the above experts. 

@author

how did you not realize her mental defects for so many years? and you had two kids. do you have any

documented efforts you made to improve her IQ or mental maturity in six years?

who will believe you in court?

six years is just too long to identify anything wrong with your wife. If you cohabit with her AFTER knowing that she is not mature or whatever, it means you accept it and are willing to live with it.  Not discouraging you from filing for Divorce, but just giving you some practical insights.   

and @Helping Hand is right; why kill old parents? Out of love for their child, they will continue to struggle and bear all the humiliation.

@Anup

what made you think that the wife was ill-treated here? author has given  few examples which clearly show that she is not an adult in someways definitely. he is even mentioning that she doesnt take any responsibility. author is not talking about cooking and cleaning, he is referring to taking care of CHILDREN. ignoring your own children can never be a retaliatory action of any sane woman. just look at the author's own parents, at OLD AGE they are caring for their grandchildren.

your response seems like a standard response - whenver a guy is troubled and talks about his wife or divorce, some people give standard answers putting the blame squarely back on the poor guy.
