I want to get a divorce. We have a 1 year old. Husband is from the US and I am from Europe and we have been living in Singapore for 9 years.Things cant be worked out and I want to move back home. What law will decide about the child custody? SG law, US law or my country? Can I go home with my child and do everything from there or do I need to stay in Singapore? Is there any chance that I will be asked to stay in Singapore for the child's best interest?
