Reading: My wife is very controlling, she decides everything in the house. She doesn’t let me or my family eat properly, my mother and father have to cook for everyone. She constantly harasses us mentally. She wants to send my children to her parents’ house and doesn’t let them stay with me. Both my sons are over 8 years old and I want to send them to school. I am thinking of leaving them with her parents for a while. Please advise, staying with her is causing too much stress for the entire family.

Indian law considers domestic violence a serious issue, including mental harassment and deprivation of basic needs. You can seek legal counsel to understand your options for protecting yourself and your children, including potentially seeking separation or custody arrangements. Leaving your children with their grandparents might be temporary, but you must ensure their safety and well-being and consider the potential legal implications.
