My sibling has been rather adamant about not posting photos of zir

I think that parents should have the right to say whether pictures of
their kids can be posted.


That sounds an awful lot like giving "parents" an absolute veto over
what you can photograph. It's not very far from there to "You can't take
photographs here because there are children present."

John,

There are constitunational (or otherwise legal) right, and there is what
is right (and/or ethical) with a kid.

I don't photograph kids until I have a signed contract and the parents pay me a lot of money.

But if I am in a public location, going about my own business, it is parents responsibility to keep their kids out of my way. It is *not* their right to tell me I can't engage in my lawful occupation because they cannot or will not control their spawn.

I've had problems before where I was working, somebody's kid intruded into my frame & the parents hassled me about it.

I really don't like that.
