      He’s based off of Mitas right? Only his hands turned things to gold. Same thing with this guy. Only his hands turn things to skittles. He said he didn’t dress if feed himself that day. So as long as he doesn’t use his hands on his clothes all should be well.

    It never says he touched his baby. It only says that he can't hold his baby. That seems to me that his baby is fine, but he'll never experience the joy of holding him. Also, it appears his "powers" are exclusively in his hands, otherwise he couldn't wear clothes at all.
