Max’s father forces Max to have sex with an old prostitute when he was 17. Later Max does the same thing, as well as his other lessons, to teach his son to “how to become a man”. They also mention how Max’s father, and then later Max, neglects their son by not showing love.

Once when Caden was in the hospital room. And second when Orla and Caden was by the pool and put weights on to drown themselves. I think Orla’s idea was to make Caden want to live rather than suicide though. Regardless, it was portrayed as attempting suicide.

The father, Max, seems to be mentally abusing his son, Caden. And Max’s father was also abusing Max mentally and physically. Max even said to Caden “you needed cruelty” when he was confronted about his “lessons”.
There is also another scene where Prime Minister is verbally very cruel towards his son. His wife even tells him “you sound just like Max”.

Max divorced Kathryn and forced her to give him full custody. There is a sad scene in episode 2 where the son begs her mom to not leave. Skip to 9:00 if you don’t want to see. (Mom later returns by the way when Caden is older)

In episode 2, Caden asks his mother if they’re going to be separated. Then he says “dad will fire her”, implying that there might be an affair with his father. Kathryn says that she is not going to be separated but does not address Caden's second sentence.
Kathryns father had multiple affairs with the house workers. It is also heavily implied that the affairs were sexual assaults.

They don’t drown actually. Orla and Caden attempt drowning by putting heavy weights on themselves, but then they both go to the surface at the end.
