The other thing I was going to say - it is ok and even recommended to invite comment or questions from the 14 yr old. Sometimes they want to ask and don't know how. They need you to open the door.
"What do you think about all this?" is ok to say, as long as it is not received as pressure. You could invite comment non-verbal cues, as well. eg, Raised eyebrows and a chin bob, suggesting a "what do you think?" invitation.
If they decline the invitation, let it be. Don't need to flood them with information or opinion they did not ask for.
