this happend during school hours. and did not involve the school it was between families.the pictures were taken over the summer. and we wanted the pictures and the student came up to the parent first. so is it right for the parent to ask for the pictures and peruse it.\nthe student is not related. the parent is worried about getting in trouble with the school for harssment. the pictures are of the parents daughter in hawaii. the student took pictures of the duahter for the mother. becuase the parent did not have a camera at the time

Why would you get into trouble? Something naughty?

Were you in school on picture day? I don't understand...Talk to someone on the yearbook staff and get a copy of it ...

Buy her a nice digital camera.... this summer will probably be the last time she'll see most of her HS friends.  It's a good way to keep the memories, and when she goes off to college (she is going, right?) it'll be nice to get pics from her through email once in a while......

most schools have filters that work like so . . . the schools put in kind of "key words" and any websites containing those words in the address (the url; or web address) are blocked, so depending on where these inappropriate photographs are (in which articles are they shown?), they would probably be blocked.

Yes, if the school does not handle their responsibility, you should say something to the parents. Someone mentioned  'No one likes a tattletail', but no one likes to be assulted and/or picked on when they are at school trying to learn either.

It's okay to photograph them when they are in a public area, like award shows etc.  But if they are w/ their kids are just trying to have a lunch or having an intimate moment that's not cool.

This is what juries are for.\n\nIt is stupid and dangerous to take pictures of nude children that include their private parts with or without consent, with the possible exception of one's own children (even that has led to threats of prosecution -- stupid but true).

It is your body and you are allowed to pose nude. Still all in all I would be very careful. Too often any picture taken (art video pic whatever) is getting on the Internet. I mean every picture. Even though you think it is innocent I can give you 100 scenarios how it can get out of hand.

froggy,\n\nIf the "policy" of this school is not to communicate through students, then the teacher was definitely in the wrong for sending a reply to you through your daughter, regardless of the offensive statement.\n\nThe statement, mind you was ignorant and offensive...that sort of thinking has no place in schools and absolutely no place in the minds of teachers...who, of all people should not place preferences for "real" or biological parents versus what, "un-real" parents, who made no genetic donations to children they care for and raise as their own?\n\nIf anything, these are the folks who should be held as the ideal, and get positive attention, instead of being shunned as someone who isn't a REAL parent...\n\nPlease...I wanna know, who is this ignorant ******?  Which State made the worst decision ever, and granted this person a teaching certificate?\n\nMs froggy, I would not rest until I get this person in front of the school principal to explain herself.  Go to the county school board if you get no satisfaction there, and to the media if you're still getting ignored.  There is no place for thinking like that.

Just consider the volume.  Showing a few snapshots or sending a few digital photos is acceptable, but just don't ask someone to go through four rolls of developed film or 75 images on-line unless they are close family.  It is perfectly normal for you and your family to be a little obsessed about your new addition and all the photos that go with it, so yes, be proud.  But, just don't overdo it with friends and acquaintances.

Bah I think the kids are to bplame... and tehre parents for letting them put up personal information.\n\nThen again it's a modern trend for suing some one else for something thats your fult...\n\nYou know some one sued a home owner becose he accidently stabed himself on a knife that was laying out the home he BROKE INTO..... WTF....

When my daughter would get books at the beginning of the year, she always brought them home so that we could go through them together.  Because I didn't want this to happen!  Well, her senior year, she didn't bring them home, and I didn't really think about it.  At the end of the year, she had that same thing happen with one of her books (I think it was written in).  I tried talking to the teacher, but it too fell on deaf ears.  At our school, we had a book fee that we give when entering high school.  I gave up and let them apply the charge to that fee and chalked it up as a loss!  They were threatening that she wouldn't get to graduate if we didn't pay!  Amazing what they'll do for $10.00 isn't it.  Pay the money... it's a losing battle and not worth the hassle.

i agree with you. i am proud of my children just as much as any other mother, but there is no way in HELL i'm going to put their pictures on the WORLD WIDE WEB. too many sickos out here, and what if someone copied their picture? there is more perversion going on in the world than we realize. it's nobody's business what my kids look like, and none of my business to see your kids!

I saw this posted about Mainworry a few minutes ago, but I didn't see what the poster was referring to.\n\nBut, anyway, to answer your question...\n\nI wouldn't personally do it. If the person wants to put those pics there, they shouldn't make them public. That's my opinion.\n\nThe other side of the coin is that if I had a young child, that child would not be on the internet unsupervised, period - and for more reasons than that they might see someone naked.

Well, if your not serious, this isn't funny! If your serious and not your state's legal age, better say something now! That's the right and moral thing to do!\n\n\n\n\nThe wrong thing to do is get proof and pics, then blackmail her with it for awile, and whatever it's worth.

I don't know if it is legal or not. It is however not professional at all. As a parent I would be going to the school board with this, as I think that a kid needs to be treated with respect.

Ultimately you have to give credit where credit is due.  Many sites will tell you that you can use the pics if you give them credit.  Others will say absolutely no.  Many school projects fall under fair use and would allow you to use the pics as long as you do not plan to profit from the use of another persons copyrighted material.  \n\nEmail the person that owns the site, get permission and say you used it and you have permission in the project.
