[quote=Anonymous]I’d have your nephew stay. He is too young to stay in a strangers basement and this sounds like it could be a life changing opportunity. You can gently and politely provide feedback to him if he makes a comment that is hurtful. However, if your son is 16, this is also a good opportunity for him to learn skills for navigating conversations that make him feel badly. My son attends a school where his peers routinely outperform him and would make competitive comments even in very young grades. He learned to let it roll off him and developed some comebacks for when kids were extra annoying. Are there other more significant concerns? [/quote]
