This. I'd suggest making his own stuff instead of getting into an internship, maybe building some small apps he could even charge for and make some side money. Start at 13 and build enough of those, and he might never need a job. I wish I'd done something like that in college, when I had plenty of free time.

Plus, that was what always impressed the most during job interviews. I was generally one of the top prospects in the interviews I did -- not because of my GPA, or the school I went to, or past job experience, but because of some of the interesting projects I'd done either on my own or to help out my father with his businesses. It shows not just skill (which lots of other people have, even if it might be a bit less than you) but ambition and drive (which, it seems, not many others have).
