Where is the father? Does he have a male role model? Do not coddle him, you are just enabling his whiny behaviour. I know it's hard but we have to stop this wussification of America. We are setting up our kids for failure.
Send him to day camp in your town (local recreation centers, YMCA, church) or send him away to overnight camp. If worse comes to worse, send him to a military style boot camp for the summer or military school.
Don't worry, it's not too late, there's still time to help him.
Good luck.
