It depends on your husband's earning capacity. If you go for Divorce by mutual consent then you can go for wholesome settlement for yourself and monthly maintenance for your daughter. Since he is the one who asks for Divorce let him pay the maintenance what you desire but before that make sure that you are ready for Divorce. Because if he forces you to leave to your parents house then without giving Divorce also you can claim maintenance and you have a good case since you are not employed now. Good luck.
