There is controversy over the photographing or filming of kids, even when non-pornographic. It is believed that clamping down on the filming of children can help stop paedophilia. Do you agree?

There is nothing wrong with photographing and videotaping your children. If they want to clamp down on pedophiles then maybe people shouldnt be posting personal stuff on the internet!

The problem with allowing photography at say ,a childs school ,is you dont know if everyone there IS a parent.
Paedophiles can trace children to specific places if they know they always go there every day and a man standing with all the parents photographing the kids is just another parent as far as everyone is concerned.
So although it seems unfair on everyone because of a few bad eggs in the world ,it is safer to not have photography at all at kids events.
A few years ago in the UK there was a murder of two little girls which turned out to have been done by the school janitor. He had met them in the holidays and they had gone into his house to visit. His girlfriend was classroom assistant at that same school.

I say, keep your childrens pictures & ,ovies off the internet if you're worried aboue paedophiles.
Of course i will continue to film my daughter doing her every day things, i wouldn't have missed her first roll over, first crawl & first steps & i think as a parent, we have a right to film them doing these things, i don't think anyone should be able to CLAMP DOWN on filming children if they're your own kids & you want to have them as keepsakes.
I also think ANYONE would have a hard time stopping people using digicams, video cameras etc - if you do it in your own home, who would know anyway?
