Peterson has six children. Her two-year-old son died on October 11, 2013, at a hospital in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, for injuries sustained during an attack by Joseph Robert Patterson, the boy's girlfriend. Peterson had learned about his son just weeks before his death, and had never met him.

Criminal and suspension claims
Peterson was charged by County Montgomery, the Grand Jury of Texas for allegedly reckless or negligent injuries to a child on September 12, 2014. He was later disabled for one game by the Vikings. Photos posted on TMZ.com reveal the feet of his 4-year-old son with wounded injuries. Peterson's 2014 NFL season came to an end after Shyam Das's arbitrators voted in favor of the NFL on November 18, 2014, saying, "The league can keep Adrian Peterson on the commissioner's free list," effectively halting the possibility of Minnesota Viking running back to play again that season. The prosecution in the case alleges that Peterson used tree branches to hit his young son repeatedly on his back, buttocks, genitals, ankles, and legs. Peterson describes his implementation as a "switch", a form of punishment used on Peterson in his own childhood.
On November 4, 2014, Peterson pleaded no contest for alleged minor offenses by rashly assaulting his four-year-old son. He avoided imprisonment after reaching an agreement with a Texas court. He used wooden tools to discipline his son in Spring, Texas in May and underwent probation and was also fined $ 4,000. He was also ordered to undergo 80 hours of community service. In December 2014, Harold Henderson, the NFL-appointed arbitrator for Peterson's appeal confirmed the unpaid Peterson suspension until at least spring 2015. However, the NFL Players Association called Henderson's objectivity questioned and said it "considered an immediate legal solution" to the decision. On August 4, 2016, ESPN.com reported that the NFL won an appeal in the case against Peterson, reversing a decision that canceled the suspension and Peterson's fine. The original decision came when Peterson claimed there was no contest for alleged criminal offenses after injuring his son.
