That would be a terrible idea.
A: Unless he WANTS to do another year at school you're making him forgo millions of dollars, that won't sit well and won't establish a good relationship from the get go.
B: You're putting his health and development completely in the hands of an outside organization. Which is a risk you should take with lower value assets since the benefits outweigh it... but not higher value ones like McKenna.
