I think Arata is Kaneki's father. He probably fell in love with Kaneki's mother and they had a short relationship. But then Kaneki's mother found out he was a ghoul and she broke up with him. The beating she gave to Kaneki were because she couldn't stand having a child with ghoul blood. But Kaneki's ghoul self didn't manifest until the incident with Rize and the organ transplant.
