You can refer to a person's age both using -sai and with just a number.

Kobito normally means either dwarf or an imaginary small humanoid (like a sprite). Apparently the same kanji can mean child but it's pronounced differently. NoboruP is taking poetic license to mean a 7-year old child in a way that adds an allusion to Snow White.

You raise a good point about. I checked and animeyay also translated it as "he", but if the boy is only 7, he'd likely be shorter and weaker, enough for her to overpower him. The lyrics literally say that her neck is being grabbed rather than directly saying it's him, so I guess it makes more sense that it's the step-mother. The Japanese blog doesn't say it explicitly, but their understanding is that the boy is stadning behind her, presumably smirking, while she's being grabbed by the neck, so I think they would agree with you. I'll change it.
