25-May-2023 (In Family Law)
I am 54 year old my wife is 45 year old we have 3 child 2 daughter one son my 3rd child my daughter is 18 plus now but last 3 year she harassed me and family she drinks smoke and relationships with many boys but if we ask something to she threatening about to file case for harassment she use bad word for me and my wife she broke anything when we give not money to smoke and all others think my son is 21 year old she threatening me if you aren't giving money i will file rape case against my son when she drinks come home beats my wife 2 times my wife is hospitalized because of she beats her .we complaint to police for all of that but police said we can't interfere in your family matters . 2 times she try to kill her mother but police not help us plz help me please try to understand my problem she only wants to our money and our house for enjoying plz help me
Whenever she behaves violently call 103 and file an NC for each incident , write a detailed complaint to the Senior Police Inspector and by RPAD send an acknowledged copy to the Commissioner of police .Do you want her not to live in your house ? You can approach the district collector of your area with an application under Protection of Senior citizens Act,even though you are not 60 years or above as your daughter is above 18 years old. Alternatively approach NGO like Stree Mukhti Sanghtana who will hold joint counselling sessions for a family settlement.

Parents facing harassment from their children, including daughters, can take legal action to protect their rights and well-being. Here are some steps and legal options:
- Filing a Police Complaint: If parents are subjected to harassment by their daughter or any other family member, they can file a formal complaint with the local police. This can be done under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), depending on the nature of harassment. For instance, IPC Section 498A deals with cruelty towards a spouse by their husband or relatives. Appropriate sections can be invoked to address harassment cases.
- Seeking a Restraining Order: Parents can approach the court to obtain a restraining order against the harassing party. This order can prohibit the daughter from approaching or contacting the parents, ensuring their safety and peace.
- Mediation: In some cases, mediation can be an effective way to resolve family disputes. A mediator can help facilitate discussions and negotiations to find an amicable solution.
- Consulting an Attorney: It's advisable for parents to consult with an experienced family lawyer who can guide them on the specific legal steps to take based on their situation.
- Legal Rights: Parents have legal rights, including the right to live in their own property without harassment. If they are being threatened with eviction or property disputes, they should consult a lawyer to protect their rights.
- Documentation: It's important to keep records of any harassment, threats, or incidents, including photographs, messages, or witness statements, as these can be valuable in legal proceedings.
