Can a king take out an opposing queen?

A Beginner's Senerio: I castle king side prior to ever being in check. Then, my son positions his queen and on a subsequant turn, takes out the middle pawn of three (in front of my castle and king) thus exposing my king, and declares "checkmate". Is this a legal move on his part? Or, may I take out his queen with my king?
