Re: how to help a young kid
definately don't get him into gaming.
Get him a weight set. He is probably too self conscious to want to lift weights at a gym, so get him a bench, some dumbells, barbell and weights and point him to some websites, or buy him a book on lifting and dieting. Learning how the body can be manipulated is very interesting and complicated stuff... he might like it, and in a couple of years he will be looking much better than he does now.
I really think this is your best option. I wish I'd have started working out and eating well when I was in highschool.
