Does he worry about the children if they broke up, as in on the off chance custody became an issue? Courts typically sides with mothers or not, unless your son has a checkered past as well, I'd like to think they'd give full custody to him.

he has voiced his concern that if they were to break up, "knowing her as i do" she would try and keep him from seeing his daughter. he has a clean record and, i feel, would have no problem gaining custody, if not full then at least, shared.
sometimes people stay in toxic relationship because it becomes the norm and they know no different. i am a prime example of that, having stayed in a bad marriage for 20+ years, but i was hoping, as do most parents, that my son wouldn't follow in those particular footsteps...
