Legally, your missus is right. However, any photographer (or organisation employing photographers) with an ounce of moral responsibility would respect your wishes and withdraw the picture, regardless of any legal "superiority".
I do have double-standards on this, though. It's only when it comes to kids, the older generation, and more personal pictures that I respect others' wishes over my rights. If, for example, I took a photo of a whole bunch of people shouting racial abuse at a football match (for the sake of a random example), I'd have no problem publishing it and would probably ignore anyone asking me not to.

Safety measures to protect against what? It's not intended to sound confrontational- I genuinely don't know why I should worry about attaching a picture of my nine-year-old son to this thread. If you could explain why I'd be increasing the risk of something bad happening to him or to our family, I'd be grateful.
