I have thought about
something like this for the two of us. I just need a mirror to mount on drop handlebars and his flat bars.
Is your son a
young'un, that is short, riding a short bike?
I once rode with a recumbent companion, low to the ground, and I was able to see him well.

The additional right hand mirror affords a pretty good rearward view, but is particularly useful:
This past weekend I rode with a companion on a low-riding recumbent three-wheel trike. I just deflected my right-hand mirror slightly downwards so I didn’t have to crane my neck upwards to see him.
The left-hand mirror was still in place to monitor reaward traffic.
