Parents, teachers, ministers, coaches, teens, and etc, etc... Read this New York Times article! In the past year I have seen 3 incidents similar to the one in the article, with "good kids" who simply made really poor choices.
Don't assume your good kid could't be involved.
Discuss with them the potential ramifications.
Technology, as you know has both good, and bad aspects. And like most things, knowledge = power.
From the article: "Lacey students were convicted of dissemination of child pornography, they could be sentenced to up to 36 weeks in a juvenile detention center. They would be registered as sex offenders."
