We advise you to supplicate frequently for your in-laws, asking Allah for their guidance and repentance, and to strive with righteous people for their guidance. If they are guided, the problem will be resolved. But if they persist in their wrongdoing, then you are permitted to prevent your son from visiting them and associating with them if you fear that he will be corrupted.
