As per amended laws and various ruling ,Hindu marriage law and law of succession had changed a law ,although still daugher in law other even own son or daughter could not claim property of father or mother if it's self earned and not ancestral ,this could not be claimed till they are alive .For other query you can contact .

1. To first query answer is NO.
2. Husband can not force his wife to stay with her in laws. But wife can not force husband for separation from his parents. It will amount cruelty.
3. Wife can not put condition to live with her in laws. If you buy your own house and shift there it will not be called separation.
4. You can not impose your wishes upon your wife neither you force your wife to shift the job. Mother is natural guardian of a child up to the age of 5 year. After that father is natural guardian.
All these problems may be ground for divorce in favour of husband. Wife behaviour amounts to cruelty against husband.

आपकी पत्नी का अधिकार सिर्फ आपके द्वारा अर्जित की गई एवं आपके परिवार की पैतृक संपत्ति पर अधिकार है...
आपकी पत्नी आप पर इस बात का दबाव नहीं बना सकती कि आप अपने माता पिता से अलग रहें । यदि वह ऐसा कृत्य करती है तो आप माननीय सुप्रीम कोर्ट के नवीनतम फैसले के अनुसार "क्रूरता" के आधार पर उससे तलाक के हकदार हैं....
यदि आप दोनों ही तलाक के लिए इच्छुक नहीं , तो आप " न्यायिक पृथक्करण " के लिए संबंधित परिवार न्यायालय में केस फाइल कर सकते हैं।

You have not clarified what exactly you want.1. Husband cannot force wife to live with him, but a wife is obliged to live with husband unless she is facing cruelty.buying or shifting to new house will not called separation from parents. She can legally take custody of child till 5 yrs this also depends on many factors.u should not deny your wife to work , seek personal advise of lawyer in this issue.
