He has two tumors on his heart. With that sentence you can see down the road. Make A Wish will not touch this because I guess it's it is illegal just to be a hacker for good or some bs. I grew up in the era of where you could download a program, ie napster, limewire, icq and be on your way. I keep searching for good hackers but it seems like they have that rep of bad. Please help....Posting this in different communities to help out btw so don't get jealous. Much love to all.

Depending where you are in the world https://www.hackerspaces.org/ could help but be aware that "hacker" means different things to different people.

Even your local Linux user group may be able to run up a honeypot for the kid to learn how to "hack". Anything beyond that an you start getting outside the scope of white hat hacking
