have decided I can no longer live with my wife. After 9 years of hell I need to end our marriage. The problem is we have a daughter that I love dearly and enjoy spending time with. My wife wants to take her and move to another state (where she has more family and she thinks a better potential life). The law in my state allows me to make her stay here, but she threatens that if I do that she will kill herself because she does not want to live here. Her threats are real as she has attempted suicide before and hates her life (goes back to childhood issues). I want to live close to my daughter, but I don't want to end up having her hate me because her mom is dead. I could still have a good relationship with her if she is far away and could visit often as I make good money. I can't move there because i'm in the heart of my industry. But it will hurt me not to be at her every event as I always have been. Someone please help me with a serious answer. I've been going nuts over this.

sue for custody. it's not in your child's best interests to leave her with a potentially suicidal and oobviously mentally unstable mother.
