I am currently going through the same process as you as my husband is based in Nigeria.
This forum has a lot of information and other forums like it.
The main thing is to submit as much information to prove your relationship and that your marriage is genuine (however long you have been married for). Do not forget to submit documents in relation to your child, proving that he is the father - birth certificate, photos etc...
The main refusals that I have notice are - marriage of conveniance and the EEA person not being a qualified person.
Good luck

Yes. Many family permits are, as yours appears to be, legitimately used to enter the UK with the intention of settling in the UK.
