Is this the stuff of the 70s, or real knotty pine? I would never paint the real wood stuff, but if it's the sort of paneling that lived back in the era of the shag carpet, you can ask his permission to paint it. You have to scruff it up a bit with sandpaper, and I think prime it (I can actually find this out, if you want to know) first.
