Child witness in matrimonial matter

The circumstances warrants me to produce a child witness of 14 years, who is the son of the parties, in a petition filed for divorce. No doubt I can produce under Sec. 118 of Evidence Act. But what about minors chief examination affidavit, whether minor be deponant of such affidavit or through other means. Please guide me.
