Get him a nice, blank, hardbound book. Inscribe it with words to the effect of ‘This is your future, yours to create, yours to document, yours to decide how to live. You may need additional volumes. Create for yourself a life such that you would be proud to have people read it in your old age, and document it here.’

It is a challenge, provokes thought, and will provide for him a place to record himself for himself as he grows and learns...

Now, that’s an excellent idea.

Am going to give one to both of my teenage daughters.

Thanks for the suggestion.
