 RE: Student's parents that interfere

Are the parents actually in lessons with you?
I'm not sure how the legalities for such things are where you live (I'm in Australia) but just about the first thing that I do is insure that the parents are out of the room when I teach. Perhaps you could tape record the lessons so that there's no problems in the legal regard.
Also look really hard for a regional band of high standard or maybe uni band where they need some extra players and don't mind him sitting in on rehearsals. Get him playing with some players who are better than he is. (That'll be good for him anyway).
Failing all that I think the previous advice from Mark is excellent.

cheers
