Sounds like his saddle should be raised. I'd think with a growing kid that'd be something that would need to be done periodically. As far as the drag: brake pads too rubbing on rim (OR) wheel bearings not adjusted properly or need grease The bike's geometry could have to do with feeling more comfortable standing up to pedal, maybe top tube to long for what he needs, standing up gets closer to handlebars.
