How to reset a password when the email for the password recovery was also changed and cannot be accessed?

My child’s Apple ID password was changed by his useless other parent and they cannot remember the password. The e-mail’s password was also changed and the password recovery process goes tot hat email. Is there no way for parents to change the password and have the account recovery go to my account or email?
