Menelaos admires Odysseus for his cunning intelligence and resourcefulness, as demonstrated during the Trojan War and his journey home after the war. He sees Odysseus as a valuable ally and a skilled strategist.
He didn't want to, but king Menelaos could persuade him. He was for only a short time home again with Penelope and his son, Telemachos, when king Menelaos came to Ithaka. Odysseus didn't want to go to war because his son was just born and acted as if he went insane. He took a plough to the beach and started sowing salt. Menelaos saw through his trick and lay Telemachos right before the plough. Odysseus saved his son and knew he had to 'surrender' now. Then king Menelaos managed to persuade Odysseus to go to war with him.

Telemachus was Odysseus' son. In the Odyssey, he spends much of the story either travelling in search of his father or staying in Sparta as a guest of King Menelaos, but his official place of residence is the island of Ithaca.
Well he doesn't really care for Odysseus but pretends he is a friend to him when Odysseus's son comes to visit and want to know his whereabouts but Nestor doesn't tries to make up reasons why he doesn't know where or what even happened to him.

Various things happen to Telemachus, if that is the son that is spoken of. King Agamemnon drops Telemachus in front of Odysseus' plow to test if Odysseus is truly insane. Telamachus is blessed by Athena several times. Telemachus is helped to be raised by Eumaeus, the swineherd. Telemachus is nearly the victim of assassination plots by his mother's suitors. Telemachus does much in his life, so it would help to be more specific.
