Legal Question in Family Law in India
a divorced hindu daughter lives with her parents and married brother.during divorce proceedings her parents supported her a lot.
but now after brother's marriage,they treat her v.badly,and even insult her in front of her bhabhi.if the daughter retaliates,she is orally abused further that if u want to live with your bhabhi,live gracefully,even though the daugher speaks up only when harassed;not otherwise.
she is made to feel repeatedly that she is living with her brother and that he only will be there after parents' death;so she has to live under him(even if he ill treats her) other relatives dont help the daughter as they too treat her as an outsider saying that she ruined the life of her inlaws and now sitting in her parents' and brother's house
because of these daily taunts,the daughter is into severe depression and therefore has quarrels with all people.so she doesnt get any my support & respect from anywhere and is v.lonely.
moreover the parents dont want to settle the daughter also.....if some marriage offer comes up,they just want her to get married there blindly without even investigating about the groom's family.
the girl doesnt want to take hasty decisions in marriage and repent later(that happened in previous marriage where she was cheated)she is further accused that she is too choosy and doesnt know how to adjust with inlaws...she is further taunted that even if inlaws are mean and abusive,she should somehow put up with them as this is what inlaws usually do in india...
the daughter is worried that after her parents' death,her brother,bhabhi and her kids will illtreat her as they have started doing it already on parents' instigations.
what action can she take against her parents for daily taunts,due to which her newly wed bhabhi is also getting the liberty to illtreat her. in front of her inlaws,in which they fully support her?......what if she takes action and then parents prove somehow that they have always taken care of her(which they did so during her divorce case;not any more)
please advise

My sympathy is with you. But try to sort out this issue amicably.
No doubt you have lots of options like DVA etc.
but as per my view every parent always support and love their children so plz dont mind but there must be something wrong with your behavior. I dont wanna blame you but think again and then try to sort out this issue.
Parents, husband and brother and sisters are those shelter, where you feel cool and safe and enjoy your life. If you will think like this then no doubt everybody will come forward to help you but he will also expect something from you which is not beneficiary for you. Plz dont choose that path, instead improve yourself and try to sort out this issue with cool mind.
