I believe that the dad in this poem wasn't abusing his son. They were dancing and he might of just been having a little bit of whiskey and that the son doesn't want to let go. The son and the dad were having fun and things were breaking but they didn't care about that. The mom might have been pissed that the dad wasn't dancing with her and she was irked that they had made their vows and that if it weren't for them he wouldn't be alive and that probably made her unhappy.
Lastly when he mentioned that the buckle wasn't hitting him in an abusive way but that he was clinging to him as he didn't want their dance to end. The little boy just might go up to the dad's belt so the buckle would be hitting the son by accident.
