Only if (a) they're taught to make faster-paced, more interesting videos and (b) they realise that they should take the medications to get rid of these "pals".

(Oddly enough, a couple of my friends and I have been teasing one another over a friend's alleged tapeworm, whom we've named T-Wo (keepin' it real, yo). She doesn't have a tapeworm (T-Wo, RIP), but was just super hungry for a week or two.)

I dunno, I think it would be a fun tool for talking abot sarcasm. Have them make videos or story board an informationally correct video about the issue of their choice, or have them make one that's horribly wrong and then tell each other why it's wrong and what the right thing to do is.

Good idea....

I think my original comment was just spawned by a "No, li'l Jimmy who does not yet understand sarcasm or humour, you cannot 'keep' your lice and tapeworm."
