Divorce Grounds

If the husband files for divorce on the grounds that the wife's family abused his daughter?

...would he owe that much money still? Could he be allowed to divorce such a woman to put his daughter in safety?

1. It wouldn't seem like a big issues as the jugde will think about over coming this problem with the wife... but depends on what type of abuse
2. YES...If you could supply proofs that he is incapable of mothering your children.You could also seek advice from a lawyer.
3. To protect the child from harm is what any parent should do, after my opinion they don't make a healthy or good environment for the child if abuse is involved. What kind of abuse you are not specific. I have suffered abuse and its traumatising and it effects the child's ability to cope and relate to other people later on. Often we get involved in abuse relationships. Silly until we see that love is kind not abusive and we have to face that our role models were not the best. But its all we knew. The earlier a child is removed from abusive people the better. Go to the family courts and hire a lawyer, these days when you are married, you still have to share what you owed as a couple and in the case of the child, who has the child. The child needs to be taken cared of for a life time.
