How do I make him see that his actions at the age of 14 may already be closing doors and opportunities?
I'd be surprised if you were able to make him see that (even if it were true, of which I am skeptical).

Can true, interesting (to him) challenges be made available to him?

I don't mean the "challenge" of getting all As in subjects he finds easy. That "challenge" just doesn't interest a lot of exceptional kids.

I mean finding material, tasks that truly interest him, challenge him, stretch him, whether in or out of school.

Something that he can have a passion for.
