Nativity blackout: Parents banned from taking photos and pupils' eyes covered up... all in the name of child protection

Nativity blackout: Parents banned from taking photos and pupils' eyes covered up... all in the name of child protection

Their eyes crudely blacked out to disguise their identities, these little girls look as if they might be the victims - or perhaps perpetrators - of a crime.

Note: Okay, this is a really interesting concept.  Lets go so far in protecting our children that parents can't take pictures of memorable events in a kids life.

  I'm sorry, but the people of England need to overthrow their government and send some of these anti-abuse people for a nice swim into the Atlantic.  Really, people like that have no business being in positions of power even in lower level position like a head mistress at a school.   People like that are just plain anal-retentive. 
Last night local MP Grant Shapps said the ‘absurd’ ban created a ‘climate of fear’ that effectively branded all parents pedophiles.

  1. Every time I want to film or photograph my kids, whether its at the school athletics or if they are performing on a stage your told you cant! why not?? It's not like there are other kids walking around in skimpy costumes or naked, this is absolutely pathetic!

    We should be able to capture and keep these precious moments forever, without the fear of being stigmatized and frowned upon like we are some sort of paedophile.

    I am starting a campaign as we will have no memories of our children when they get older.

    Even when you do film or photograph other people look at you as if your some sort of threat.
    I think that we should challenge all schools and authorities who prevent us recording these precious memories of our loved ones.
