Malcolm:

In that case, the opposite should be done: you need to cut the "umbilical cord". Him doing well as a junior student at a university is an indication of him being capable of everything (mostly). So, he just needs to realize that, and take a full control of things in his own hands.

So, pass the idea of tethering a phone to your _son_ instead!
(and it is a physical tethering, not in the sense of data!)
:-)

E.g. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/T-REIGN-Retractable-Carabiner-Polycarbonate-Attachment/dp/B00BF6QR6O
http://www.gearkeeper.com/communication/cellphones.html
https://www.amazon.com/CELL-PH-RETRACTING-SECURITY-TETHER/dp/B0007TQWI8

<Sigh> He's 21 and in his third year of university - where he is doing very well. His ability to break or lose things is certainly worth a first.

I will pass your suggestion on to my wife; regardless of his age, it has
merit!
