How do i delete that icloud email account?
If you are talking about the @icloud.com address created when the account was first opened (the 'primary address', and shown at the top of the list as the 'iCloudIMAP address' in Preferences>Accounts at icloud.com's Mail page) you cannot delete it. You can only delete 'email aliases' - additional addresses added later.
The only way completely round that is to open a new iCloud account, which will require a different Apple ID. However you can create an email alias with the address you want, use that and just ignore the one your son kindly created for you. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
