7) if you have any apprehensions of your husband better make position clear before you decide to have kids .

Dear Querist

first of all think, what do you want?

if you want to live with him then try to settle the matter amicably with him and live separately without the interference of his parents and other family members, it may be possible then due to your love marriage with their son their feeling and wishes may destroy and due to these feeling they are not able to accept you and blame you and taunt/abused you.

if you are not willing to live with him and you apprehended that in future he may be converted in his previous religion and may be he force to kids to join his religion then it will be better to file a divorce case and live happily with your life as per you wish and faith.

You may contact a lawyer or marriage counselor personally or over the phone for best advise

Hi!

It seems you've problem with everyone. If your husband has converted himself before marriage, how could he blame you? You're destroying your present happiness with future apprehensions. If you can not adjust and do not want to spend your life with your husband, go for mutual consent divorce. Contact a local lawyer.

Hi, in your narration whether you have marriage is solemnized as per the special marriage act or not and we need to know whether your marriage is solemnized under which law.

2. If the marriage is solemnized under special marriage act you have to apply for divorce under special marriage act only.

3. It is my kind advice to you go for a counselling so that both of you can resolve your dispute and tried to understand better if the counselling is not worked out then you have legal option which is always open to you.

1. Your husband converted to Christianity out of his own free will. So no legal consequences of his conversion will ensue to you.

2. Your query is not clear on whether the conversion took place prior to or after the marriage. It is also silent on whether you married according to Hindu or Christian rites, or you married before the registrar.

3. The ill treatment meted out to you was originated from your mother-in-law and not your husband. From what you have stated, no instance of domestic violence can be imputed to your husband.

4. It is certainly vile for a mother-in-law to tell her daughter-in-law that the latter is staying with her husband only to have sex, but this is not illegal by any stretch of the imagination.

5. You and your husband can visit a marriage counsellor to reconcile your differences. If this proves futile then you may separate by applying for mutual divorce.

6. Your parents-in-law will have no right over your children

1) if your mother in law abuses you and your family record the abuses .

2) since your in laws are staying separately you are not going to meet them often .

3) visit a family counselor with your husband . it will help in your reconciliation efforts with your husband . counselor will make your husband understand that no lady will tolerate constant abuses being hurled by her mother in law to her and her family

4) you can also file domestic violence case against your MIL and husband and obtain a protection order .

5) as on date you dont have kids.

as and when you have kids your relationship with your in laws may improve .

you cant stop in laws from meeting your kids . you may refuse to permit your kids to stay overnight at your in laws place

Hi, you can take legal recourse against your in laws and you can file a complaint in the police station but with my rich experience i don not think it will help you and the matter will go from bad to worst so better you avoid your in laws so that you can save your marriage.

Dear Querist

first of think about you decision, what do you want to do now????????

1. Your issues are debatable as to who is at fault,

2. Agreeing to marrying some body on condition that he/she shall have to convert to other religion is not at all proper and the ground shown by you that his religion was against your religion is not correct as no religion in the world is against any other religion. There are so many examples in our society where both the persons are carrying on in their individual faiths being co-operative with each other,

3. However, he can not take you to court for forcing convertion upon him before agreeing to marry him,

4. So, there is no legal problem which you can face on this account and you can very well come over your present problems since these are very minor problems which need adjustments,

5. As regards your problems with your MIL, avoid confontration at any cost now. Please note that both of you will suffer if you head towards divorce as divorce is the 2nd most stressful event in ones life which people understand after divorce,

6. Your MIL does not want her husband to talk to you. Similarly you do not want your future children to be even seen by their grand parents. Execellent planning but the sufferers are/ will be your FIL who will not be able to talk to his DIL and your children who will be deprived of the love of heir rand parents.

1. You are right. This type of problem between the DIL and MIL prevails in most of the families which make life miserable,

2. Both thing claim to be right and other side is wrong,

3. Do not worry, both of you will get used to it,

4. Nice to know that you do not want divorce,

5. In fact you do not have any major problem at all for which you shold ask for legal guidance,

6. I will suggest you to visit a marriage councillor with our huisband to sort out issues.
