>What would you have him do instead?

His parents should encourage him to go to non-technival activities with kids his age. Sports, music, chess, etc.

Kids his age are in high school until 3pm. Him doing those activities after 3pm isn’t hindered by deciding to work for SpaceX until 3pm

He is smart maybe he should try and start an business or something.. I mean he isn't working for sustenance here, he is still a dependent. At least that is what I would do.

> he likely still needs to develop socially

You think starting a business as a 14 year old is a better social improvement than working with others at a SpaceX office?
