Re: Would you put photos of children online?
First of all, I would question the motive. What need would a gallery fulfill? Who benefits? Who will visit?
If a legitimate need can be identified, then I would ask what are other ways to proceed?
The anti-perv statement is knee-jerk but it's not inappropriate. The day care has a published address and phone number... easily found. The pictures would be like menu items. In most/all states, licensed day care providers have background checks done... despite the fact that the vast majority are decent people. The more important fact is that there ARE some evil people out there. IOW, minor inconvenience to all vs major trauma to a few... I'm glad we choose to protect the few.
I'm willing to bet that the director has no compelling reason to add a gallery other than some inarticulable desire to be more "cutting edge" than competitors, etc. Sorry if I'm unfairly characterizing... but I face this all the time.

| I think your opinion matters more than most pog, you have been posting enough pictures here that we feel your kids are family  , i personally can't look beyond and add malice to a photo of a child, it's beyond me how a pervert would look at the same picture with a totally different point of view. If i was a parent with young children i wouldn't worry about posting a photos of my kids on-line but, i can see the point of view of parents who feel a need to protect their kids and wont post photos on-line.
Bottom line i feel that the parents signing a release and the dress code are very appropriate in this situation. |
