How old is he?
As a mom of three, my advice would be that you should first warn him that if he doesn't shape up, you'll talk to his parents, and then if he doesn't, then do so.
They have the right to know if they're not getting value for their money (unless he's paying for his own oboe lessons).
Do it tactfully, though. "Junior seems to have hit a plateau, and he doesn't seem very interested in the oboe anymore; I need him to do things that will advance his learning, but he's been having some issues with compliance lately."
Not, "Your son is a waste of DNA and I don't know why I'm bothering with him, I feel like I should give you nice people a refund, why don't you see if the Army will take him?"
