A victory for common sense or a 'field day' (excuse the pun) for paedophiles?
Will there now be an end to the ban on parents taking video or photographs of their children's nativity plays?
Or has it gone too far under the last regime, which has set suspicion into some parents minds?
Why only a few days ago 'Goggle Street' was pulled over the coals for photographing a naked child playing in it's Grandparents garden.

The basic problem is that we fail to take paedophiles out of society, therefore everyone, especially men have to cower away from any contact of even the remotest kind with children. It's a sad state of affairs but society has made it such that men must cross the road to avoid getting anywhere near children. This is a symptom of that. Innocently taking pictures of your own children on sportsday tend to label the taker irrespective. Ask a modern middle age white bloke what he fears most and it's likely to be children.
at the school my children are at all the parents take photographs , why should we miss out in our children's lives because of paedophiles , they will do it whether we can video/take photographs or not !! , there is no ban in this particular school even the school liaison person was taking photo's of the children the other day as it was there leaving assembly
omg what she all about moaning because google car took pictures ,he shouldnt have been allowed out in the garden with just shoes on to begin with especially when you can see it from the road so just how many times was the little boy already pictured by people passing by hmmmmm , also she has said she lives on the same street as her mother doh , well everyone who knows that area no where they stay now!!!!

I remain skeptical that this clarification from the Information Commissioner will make any difference. It has always been the case that the Data Protection Act did not prevent taking pictures in public.
The Commissioner has taken away one excuse, but the schools deploy others. It never was anything to do with Data, more on over zealously protecting children from a over stated threat, whipped up by tabloid Paedo Hysteria.

google didn't take a photo of a naked kid, they took a photo of a public higway. why on earth was that kid allowed to parade up and down outside the front of the house anyway ?
as regards the school sportsday/concert/play video/photo ban, i often thought it was more of a cheeky opportunity for the school to hire a professional videographer and flog some 'official' videos.

I'm a bloke and I love kids (no, I couldn't eat a whole one, nor am I a paedo). But simply because of the hysteria in the media over the years, I would no sooner put my hands platonically on a child as would I murder one. It has gotten as bad as that.
Some of my neighbours have gorgeous little kids whom I'd love to pick up and cuddle, as long as they and mums/dads didn't mind, of course! But were any of today's PC brigade to witness such a "heinous offence", I'd undoubtedly be down my local nick answering some uncomfortable questions.
Common sense must, and be seen to, prevail. Kids are naturally tactile, and it's a crying shame that genuine concern for their welfare has been replaced by irrational fears and red tape.
Yes, by all means, hammer all kiddie fiddlers, severely, but don't let uncalled for and unjustified paranoia get in the way of innocent and well meaning relations between kids and adults alike.

i was on a train the other day and there was a baby on the same carriage she was quite content most of the time i was on but started getting cranky after about an hour my instinct was take take the child from the mother and give her a break but you just cant do it any more loads of people on the train where sighing and moaning about the baby crying it was standard class why didn't they sit in the quiet zone if they didn't want noise i think this was upsetting the mother more because she must have heard it and trying to console her child , i finally put my finger out and the child held it and was giggling away but unfortunately i had to get off the train hope someone else helped out as the mother seemed ok with me doing that
cherry,
I take it you're a "laydee", and not a "hairy arrissed bloke" like wot I am? In which case, no one would probably have blinked an eyelid at what you did, but had I done the same thing, which I know I'd have been tempted to do, reactions not only from the mum but maybe other passengers, would I bet have been quite different?
It really persists me off!!

but it shouldn't be like that pedos come in all shapes and sizes and sexes ,i think it is wrong to discriminate because a guy wants to help , but i did shout at my mum the other day while she was at the school she thought she saw my son and decided to go up and say hello (granted he did look like my son but 2 years younger lol) when she realized it was too late hahaha she came sat back down and the wee boy turned round and waved to her , i was mortified incase his parents were there luckily they werent but the situation could have got a lot worse :)
as a dad of young children i can empathise with the young mum on the train and i would not have hesitated to make a few faces or play some games with the child to relieve their boredom and frustration (and mine) even a bit of peekaboo or round and round the garden. i would stop at holding the child though as i know how that would feel to me being a parent and not wanting strangers getting to familiar (more concern about child snatching than any paedo stuff).
so in all it really depends on the parent, but all the pasengers could have played some part in being nice to the child and seeing if that helped sto pthe crying, and i am sure they would all have got a smile out of it. i think people generally fear parenmts reactions with an innate sense of guilty by association.
