There’s something wrong were it will not let me and my son joins each others worlds it’ll load and say estimated time them when it gets almost done it sends us back to main menu we’re on Xbox and our maps are public online and everything

Sounds like a networking issue. If a client takes way too long to connect (i.e. dropping packets, corruption, etc) it will kick the connecting client to the main menu.

Open these network ports for Xbox One - Microsoft Support can help (this applies for xbox series x/s too) for the host. It might help clients, but if you two are in the same household only port forward for the host. To make it easier, most routers let you setup a port forwarding and a drop down option to pick which device gets the ports forwarded, so if you need to swap just swap it in there.

There's also the Network Workaround option in the General tab in the options list, you can try enabling that as host and client.

Wifi is also bad for this game, especially if you two are inside the same house.
