Is this a decent monitor for this use case? Thank you in advance.

It's not meant for anything about 60 FPS though, as it is a 60 Hz monitor.
If your son plays fast, twitchy FPS like Quake, Doom, or any e-sports FPS like Fortnite or Apex Legends, he's going to be locked at 60 FPS with this monitor. A lot of gamers (but not everyone) wants higher refresh rates than 60 in those types of games. Me - I could care less, really. I went from 1440P high refresh rate -> this monitor and I'm very happy with it. (I'm actually using 2 of them for productivity, as I also WFH.)
It's not a gaming monitor, no, but it is a fantastic monitor.
Keep in mind that it is also a 4K monitor, so depending on his PC specs he may get lower framerates anyway due to the horsepower required to make the monitor really shine. I run a 4070 Ti Super in my system and it does great at 4K.
