So confused

I am trying to leave a toxic relationship that isn't working out at all. it keeps me mentally drained and stressed most times. My husband works away for 4 months and is home for 2 and we have a one year old. This time round,i tried to talk to him about our relationship,but we ended up arguing and not even talking days before he went away. I have told him i want to leave and he doesn't have a problem with that. He's parent's on the other hand,want me to stay because they'd be devastated if they lost their only grandchild. I am more worried of taking my son back to my home country as its not the best place to raise an interracial child not unless you are financially stable .I am jobless at the moment. Education here is also good and all i want is for my son to have a better future. I wish i could get a job and get a place and raise him here instead of going back. If i divorce him,ill have to go back home as i am on a spouse visa.. i am really confused but have had enough of this relationship.

What a difficult situation.
Do I understand you right, that you would like to stay in the country where you live now, if that is possible?

Is there any chance that you could change your visa to a different one?

Can you try talking to your husband again, when he returns home?

If you would return to your home country, do you have family and friends there, for support?
Are the countries far away from each other, geographically?

Hopefully someone else here will have some more helpful advice.

Yes i could but it will have to be to a work visa but unfortunately i have to be earning a certain salary for me to be approved one . I am from east Africa and currently in the Uk..I do have family but don't want to burden them as they are also struggling.it is a tough situation..
