Priority Security & Boarding: they will not share his Group #, but a simple "they're with me" works 99% of the time (even your mother on the same PNR will not inherit his Group #).

Award Fees: the only non-elite fee is for booking within 21 days, so no issue there, assuming you're booking this online.
there was a thread recently that AA has automated sweeps of MCE if pax are not eligible for it. Are you sure you can still keep MCE If you are not on the same PNR?
