Is it dangerous?
Yes, but danger's what makes life fun, after all :-) The most important part would be to explain to the group's members what this means. As a close second, frequent backups. Of course, if it's an otherwise vital system extra care would needed (a backup system or similar). There's no reason why teens shouldn't be good sysadmins, and you gotta start learning at some point. It's definitely a Good Thing they don't grow up as "just" passive smartphone consumers! Cheers -- t
