    Soni,

    Be honest and tell her you cannot work any longer with her. If you feel she is unapproachable, try to cite a health reason and get a release. Usually, health reasons work in these situations.

    You can say that there is a personal emeergency at home and you are required.

    Ask you family members from India to call you and also talk to your manager about the emergency (made-up). There is a law in Saudi to that effext. Not sure in Kuwait.

    You can try and see is this works.

    Soni,

    Either tell her that your kid needs you and you want to spend time with your son and leave the company.Think about how she reacts.First try to understand what is her mentality and react according to that.Tell the kids reason or as other op's posted here, tell some urgent need that you have to be in India.

    All the best :)

    Hi Soni,
    You can tell her how stressed you are feeling because of her behavior. Give her a feedback. Being a woman, she must be able to understand your responsibilities at home and towards your child.
    Tell her you want to understand your professional responsibilities and can do those jobs and that you cannot do her personal work.
    Try to converse with her without confrontation.
    If things dont work out, ask her to respect your decision and request her to let you go.
    Hope this helps

    Regards
    Yamuna
