Both parents have equal rights on their children, so your wife doesn’t have any right to part you from your kids. You don’t have to quit your job simply if you don’t want to. Your wife is wrong here, she can’t force you to stay somewhere if you don’t want to but if she is saying it for your own good then you should think about it. Communicate with your wife and try to find a reason for her doings. You must have many memories attached to your hometown and you won’t be able to move from there without a valid reason. Therefore, have a good talk with your wife because this decision will affect you all.
