People must be allowed to make their own mistakes to properly understand why they are mistakes. If you want a person to be truly good they must do things because they understand that it is the right thing to do, not just because they are told to. Generally the harder you force people to comply, the harder they resist. First you must be entirely non-judgmental and then maybe he will look to you as a role-model.
