Answer:
Ebbs and flows in this context mean that human misery comes and goes.
Explanation:
The poem, Dover Beach, written by Matthew Arnold, uses the term 'ebbs and flows' to describe how human misery comes and goes. Ebbs and flows, in the context of sea movement, refers to the coming (flows) and going (ebbs) of the sea tides.
We can say that though hardships and miseries are experienced by all humans, eventually, it would all go away, drifting into the sea as we continue to live on and experience more happiness and betterment flowing in.
The stanza referred is this excerpt:

Mother/Writer:
1. Disturbed over her son's new development at the age of thirteen.
2. Endeavored to punish her son when he misbehaves.
Son/Teenager:
1. Stubborn and disobedient to the mother
2. Lazy and dirty
3. Ready to withstand his mother
Explanation:
The above are my observations of the mother and son.
We see that the mother was not happy with who her son became. She experienced tough time in the hands of her thirteen years old son. The son, on the hand was disobedient and defiant. He was also lazy and unkempt. He was a son that was almost ready to withstand his mother. Whenever the mother punishes him for his misbehaviors, he feels like revenging the mother.
