English term or phrase: to stick with it
Testo teatrale americano (per la messa in scena e non per la pubblicazione). Dialogo tra donne. Una di loro si è trasferita di malavoglia con la sua famiglia in montagna.

A: So, what are you going to do? About your situation up there.
B: What can I do? My family is happy up there. My kids, my husband. They love it. And I love them so the best thing to do is to stick with it.

La mia proposta:

A: E quindi, che farai? Con la tua situazione lassù?
B: E che posso fare? La mia famiglia è felice lassù. I miei figli, mio marito. Amano stare lì. E io amo loro, perciò la cosa migliore da fare è continuare a stare lì.

Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie!

lasciare il mondo come sta


Explanation:
"If you stick with something, you do not change to something else."
Basandomi su questa definizione del Collins, ho pensato a questa soluzione che lascia intuire anche la rassegnazione della donna.
"E io amo loro, perciò la cosa migliore da fare è lasciare il mondo come sta."
