you could try using screen. tell your friend to type screen or screen -S "somename", then you can pass the screen -x "somename" and you should be able to do it. if you can't find what it is do screen -ls and use the PID as somename.

What do you mean by "trying to get them on the same screen"?
When you're in an SSH session you are root just as you were when you installed your own. They won't be able to see what you are doing (unless they want to watch you by continuously running ps aux) |
