I have gone through query. That you have not given any details what for you want to take divorce. For divorce you have to approach to the court of law. By simply you want divorce court cannot give divorce and regarding the custody of child you can take custody of child. But my suggestion is to short out the problem and make better future of your child. Do not take hasty decision. If it is serious take the help of your elders and also contact advocate.
