You has done exactly right because in this way the distance between them may be reduced and they will understand each other and the mother will also understand that it is for the sake of her child that she stops here and Stay with him and nurture him and in this way the child will also get time and he will not have the opportunity to go to his aunt and if he stays with his mother then his mind will also be right and He will also become a good child and thus will not get into tension with anyone else and his health will also be fine. You have done a good job.
