No photos of your baby!


A couple was banned from taking photographs of their baby daughter on a swing by a park warden who declared it `inappropriate.'

Steve Brook and partner Mandy Smith were having a family day out with 11-month-old Rebecca when the council worker swooped.

"It beggars belief," said Steve, 35. "The fact that a mummy and daddy can't take a picture of their own daughter is ridiculous. I could understand if it was in a swimming pool, but she was well wrapped-up and as far as I could see we were the only people in the park."

Town hall officials said the warden had misinterpreted council policy when he confronted the family at Alexandra Park in Oldham.

They don't seem to get it-- If some strange man was standing next to them taking pictures of their daughter wouldn't they object?

Yes, a strange man doing so is inappropriate but in this case, they are the parents... I think what the park warden should have done is to determine their relationship first before deciding whether to stop them from taking pictures.
