Tyros, you've listened to the others and here you are starting over. Trust me; go with three. Just go to lvl 7-8ish and see how things look from there. You'll lvl up twice as fast (that makes sense, right) and your party of 3 will be much better.
In early game, halfing the party size gives you *one* extra level, since the xp you need doubles for each level.
In late game, you'll have 3-4 more levels (with double the xp for each character).

He didn't make it far into the game yet. So it's better to use a large party, and even RPC's; you have a much better chance to survive, and learn more about different professions. After he finished the game once, and has a feeling for the different classes, he can play smaller parties.

Don't worry about the protection spells that you can't cast; they're over rated in my opinion.
The protection spells are very valuable when playing expert. When you play easy, its clear that you don't need them.
