My in-laws for a time lived close to us and one year they made the mistake of leaving their garage door open. A pair of barn swallows set up house keeping and they had to leave the door up. When it came time for the babies to fledge (capable of flight ready to leave the nest) the parents took turns dive bombing the nest and knocking the babies off the edge. All flew off safely and the parents had completed their job.
You can attach screening (Velcro does a nice job) over the door closest to where he has his castle, and realize in ten years or less he will be fledging and your job as a parent is to help that process.

That way, everybody is comfortable and the boys have their own "room" but, if there is any trouble or mischief, you'll be more likely to hear it happening. If the tent window is attached to one trailer door somehow, then the boys would still have their own exit and so would you. If the tent is shorter than your trailer, you could back the tent window up against the trailer and rig a rain fly between your window (or door) and the tent window so that you can not only leave your window and their window open but also you could hear and see right down into their tent without weather worries.
