I think you, and in general, the whole aviation community (examiners, fellow CFIs) should be even more stubborn that he won't ever fly solo with that personal attitude.
Real life story: wealthy person wants to impress his peers, buys an aircraft and takes on pilot training, but without respecing rules of safety or even the laws of physics. Several instructors give up on him, but he keeps on seeking new ones, offering higher training fees. Eventually someone convinces him that at least for the exams, he must behave himself. He does, he passes the skill test. A few months later, he takes 3 of his passengers on a sight-seeing flight in his own airplane, and when returning to the home (grass) airfield, he buzzes the field, then makes a steep climbing turn, in which he stalls, spins and crashes the airplane from low altitude. This irresponsible pilot dies and kills 3 unsuspecting passangers as well. This irresponsible pilot also spois the respect of general public towards aviators for years.
So you got to be tough on this one and even more stubborn than him, otherwise it's sure as hell, that someday he will kill himself and also killing innocent people flying with him or on the ground. I can't imagine any greater failure for a CFI than the fatal accident of his/her former student due to pilot error.
