I think the whole world is getting too restrictive with everything these days. I would have no problem seeing a candid picture of my child online in a public place if it's purpose was photography, which in this case it is. If I was in a public place with my children and saw someone taking photographs, unless they were acting suspiciously, what is the harm? It has evolved from child pornography to this ludicrous stage where you can't do anything without being scrutinized, and it's ridiculous. Suspicious activity would be taking a picture of the same child, not yours, over and over again. Or hiding in order to take the picture without being seen. People get into pictures, whether they're the subject or in the background, it happens. Unless you clear an entire area just to take a picture it's not going to be rectified. And I find it hard to believe that the OP has never taken a picture with someone he didnt know in the frame. Unless you just photoshop them all out?
