I'll comment on the first thing that pops out at me. The subject is the child, but the road leads you out of the image and it's out of "balance." The top left is very dark, the bottom right is very bright and that high contrast does nothing to create the mood of the image. He looks like he's chilling out, which to me would want low contrast to aid in the mood I think you're shooting for.
I guess the question would be, what story are you trying to tell with this image? |

I think cropping would help, and I agree with the b/w |
i'll echo Johanna. its like its trying to be two different images. |

I like it as well. Have you tried it in black & white? |
