I hope the.mom leaves him if not she is sorry. Leave this man woman he should not be mean to your son and then u take him back. So that means u approve of him being mean to him. Then the kid needs to go to the welfare where he will b taken care of and u need to b in jail with him. If u leave him good for u.
