As the title says. That is the predicament I am in. My wife won't let me take my daughter around her because she is enemies with her mother, my ex-wife. After my wife and my ex-wife got into a few intense arguments, my ex-wife threatened my wife with a no contact order which would also "protect" my daughter. Furthermore, my wife believes my ex-wife cast a spell on her and is using my daughter to carry the magic. This sounds odd, but such beliefs are commonplace in her culture - she is not American born. At one point my wife was irritated and was yelling at me, insulting me and calling me names. When she spit on me, I jumped up from my sitting position and scared her off, because I didn't know what she would do next. I left and stayed at my parents' house, which is about an hour away. The next day, she filed a no-contact order against me to spite me. I told my dad, whom she was pestering via email, to tell her to please feed my daughter's turtle, since I wouldn't be around. My wife's daughter who hates me had hacked into her mother's email and reported a "restraining order violation" to the police. Her daughter being a minor, my wife had to approve it. And she did. I was arrested and almost went to jail but got off with probation. Even though I have never hurt her or laid a hand on her! I still wanted to stay with my wife at this point, blaming my wife's daughter, and not her herself. But my parents, whom I was staying with at the time, told me that if I don't divorce my wife, they will disown me and they never want to see me again.
tl;dr So, in a nutshell, I have to choose between my wife and my daughter and parents. If I don't divorce my wife, I will be disowned and I will also almost never see my daughter again. So, I have to choose: my wife or my parents and daughter. This is an unimaginable situation and I don't know what to do. What would you do?
How is this even a tough predicament? Your daughter in a heart beat. Having a father treat her poorly is likely what caused your wife to be as terrible as she sounds. You have a responsibility to be there for your daughter and to help raise her right. Your wife sounds like she would only complicate your daughter’s life as well as your own.
