Do you think that the fact that most tweens and teens have the affordable digital recording ability make them more likely to do stupid things for the sake of showing off?

Affordable video camera/video cell phones...are they dangerous for youths?

Yes. Somebody does something stupid, puts it up on Youtube, it gets 5 million views and some moron decides to do a sequel.

Yes - it does make them more likely to do stupid things and no they shouldn't have that ability on their phones/cameras, etc.

Absolutely. My daughter has a cell phone, but hers doesn't have video capabilities. It's not necessary. All it does is prompt people to be a little more exploitative at the spur of the moment–particularly teenagers and young twenty somethings.

Probably. A basic cell phone for tweens and teens should suffice. Ain't no way in hell would I buy my kid a Blackberry or iPhone. He/she is going to have to get it themselves.
