I cannot believe what I have just read in the telegraph. The FA have now banned parents from filming or videoing their children playing football. It is getting to the stage now where you can't record your childs achievments and milestones anymore which is absolutely pathetic. This countries rules are becoming a joke. Can you imagine not having a record of your milestones, I still have the old videos/cine film conversions of me in the school sports day, nativity, scoring a penalty at 8 years old to win a game. But now we face a situation where a future adult will have no record his proud dad has made for him accounting the important bits of his childhood. PATHETIC.
 
I can see the reason behind the plan. However, why can't they just say you can only film an event, if you're one of the parents of a child taking part?

:confused:
 
Some schools don't let you film at Nativity plays either, madness.

Anyway it makes no sense, as you can still film on a beach etc.

Whatever the legislation or rules they impose on innocent people, you can bet the effin' perverts will carry on regardless, it's just the innocent that will suffer as usual.

Isnt that always the case!!! Again this country is getting it wrong way round isn't it the pervs they want to be stopping & not just proud parents!!:rolleyes:
 
I tell you, for a country that procclaims to having freedom of choice,speech ect.. we are not doing very well are we?? :mad:
 
The country has gone totally mad, the pc brigade have got their fingers in everything. God knows where its all going to end, soon we won't be able to set foot outside the house with having the thought police on every corner. George Orwell wasn't far wrong with 1984, only its 22 years late

At least we are safe near the library in Ossy, as the cctv cameras apparently don't work.

See you all there at eight, and don't forget the cider and voddy.:D
 
Schools now send a letter of permission as well as data protection to fill in whether they can take pic's, use pics for media & tv etc
 
they willprobably spend more money and put more effort into making parents feel like perverts than actualy keeping the real perverts locked up

my parents have pictures of me in the bath as a baby and i can assure you neither my dad or mum ever molested me yet if you take similar pictures into boots they ring the police ( happened a few years ago it was in teh papers)

bloody pathetic :mad:
 
Oh if they are banning taking Embarrassing pictures of your youngsters what the hell you gonna show their boyfriend/girlfriends when they get older.......I only had to kids to enjoy this moment...:D

Yes wasn't it BBC newsreader Julia Sommerville who was questioned by the police after taking her innocent snaps of her children to Boots?
 
I think that it is pathetic. Restrictions such as this do not flush out the real paedophiles or stop abuse. All these restrictions do is alienate decent parents who want to savour some memories of their children.
 
I think its bloody pathetic that we cant film our children , both my two youngest have picked awards and trophies up at school ,times that would have been perfect for putting on video so they can treasure it when they get older, but no ..im not allowed to film in school or take pictures .

My daughter danced on stage at the grand theatre last year and will prob not get chance to do it again.and when i asked if i could capture it on video my request was refused , I then asked if the school would be filming it thinking i could buy a copy from school but nope they wasnt filming either .

Her father couldnt be there because of work and a video would have been perfect for him to be part of her big night ..

Instead it can only be a memory in her mind and mine , What next???

ITS RIDICULOUS

Quick call the sexist police :D

I would love to have had a video of my DAUGHTER scoring HER first goal a couple of weeks ago. This isn't new by the way it's been in place for at least the 2 years my daughter has been playing football.
