As someone who's roughly followed your son's trajectory (I did it on my own initiative), and now have to be pissed-off day in day out by a flood of typical chinese brats, I say
bravo! ^
So many here in Taiwan - male and female - are clueless in basic etiquette and how to behave in public. It screws me up and I literally have to leave a couple times each year to get my perspective back.
