What are pros and cons of doing this? What impact it will have on the personality / mind of the person down the line after say 10 yrs?

At 16 they should be just as capable of understanding the limitations as anyone. Just be sure to explain that it has no interest in truth, but only writing convincingly.

I doubt it will have personality impacts. The one thing that could be an issue is if they use it as a replacement for real human friends.
