Thanks. My son is 4 year old so its difficult to have coach at this young age. So i usually teach him. My rating would be around 1300-1400 something and his current rating is around 700 USCIF. Do  you think I can teach him now for atleast he goes around 1200+ or i will make him more weak player?? 

Also he plays weekly USCF tournaments. Will it help him?? or we should consider having less tournament like 1 in month???

Kids improve faster because they are like little sponges.  They absorb everything.  I would say that #2, #5, and #8 are the most important.

he doesn't want to changes hin opening moves to be changed...he has few fix moves like e4 e5 Nf3 Nc6 Bc4. 

May be he is too young to learn the opening so we focus on tatics and endgame.

1, 5, 8 by far most important of the ones you listed.

no no, if one of his opponents plays openings like d4 he miht  lose. must also focus on openings then. i likd italian when i was young but it came to suffer. he must dry different openings. im  young too so you cant just say like that.

Tell that to Wei Yi, who still uses the italian today against 2700 gms.

sadly, i am not gm to compete him. so dont compare me and master wei

My opinion is classics are great for beginners. Openings like the danish, two knights, they teach the importance of center, development and castling, etc.

Don't worry, your Son is to youth now to bother how to teach him because his memory it's not so strong yet. After his six-seventh his memory start to upload data. At eighth-nine he will be an expert in chess with out realize how he did that. Nature.

I've seen the games, and your little 4-year-old plays at about a 1000 level. I would like to play this guy sometime!
