Thank you, I definitely understand what you mean, which is exactly why I want him to find some friends. Having outside activities on his own will give him the freedom he needs. Since it's only week one, I'm definitely hovering. It's so refreshing to get responses with genuine concern and good advice. Thank you!

Au pairs are definitely a great group for him. Try posting on the au pair list on DCUM.
