Thanks for responding Ocean.

Yes I'm allowed to work and have applied for 10 jobs and not even being acknowledged. I had a very good, professional job back home. applied for jobs paying 20 to 25% of what I was earning at home and nothing.

Children are school age - elementary. School district very poor so limited job prospects there.

I should be able to stay in US but I honestly can't afford to nor really want to with no family or friends here.

I came to the US on a spousal visa two years ago. My spouse has not supported me at all. He is emotionally abusive and has demanded that I support myself financially so I have spent $50k in savings doing so. I have no job so really can't afford to live here on my own. My savings will run out soon. We are now divorcing and fighting for custody. I want to return home to Europe. I love my son with all my being, he is my entire world, but at times his behavior is very challenging. I have no family or friends here. I feel completely overwhelmed and at times I wonder if this is all worth it. For my sanity, should I just drop the custody and go home? I feel very confused, conflicted, overwhelmed and hopeless.

Any words of encouragement or advice on overseas relocation would be much appreciated.
