      relax bro, it's only rock n roll. The kid is doing better than most 16 year olds I hear at Guitar Center when I walk in. The sloppiness will get better as he ages if he improves, and the audience less forgiving if he doesn't. He wasn't a paid act, so I think parents at the school are more than appropriate to clap for his performance at 10 years of age. There are plenty of shoddy adult guitar cover videos you could rip into instead of this kid.
