Also - people taking pictures of your kid follow-up.
Oddly, as this was just talked about this week. This happened to us yesterday.
TWO people took pictures of L in her dress as we were running around the park. They were older, probably around 55ish. One male, one female. They both commented about how very adorable she was and then took a picture. One asked, one did not.
It was odd.
I wasn't sure how to respond.
Re: Also - people taking pictures of your kid follow-up.
I think this is strange. I don't understand wanting pictures of other people's children, unless you know them.
On a related note, I think a lot of people (not necessarily you) feel like it's okay to travel internationally and take pictures of kids or even adults in other countries. You see people come back from travels all the time with photos of other people's kids, or people going about their daily business. It irritates me, especially because I think some of the same people who take these pictures would be very uncomfortable if someone was visiting here and took pictures of their kids.
Yes, that is very true. I've wanted to take pictures before but never wanted to ask, so I didn't.
I had someone in Madrid ask to take a picture of L and I one night in Madrid. I had her wrapped in my moby and then my coat over us both. He was like a real photographer so I let him.
The two from yesterday were both Americans. I got the impression that they both just wanted to go home and shame their kids into giving them a grandchild so they could buy them a similar dress.
I asked someone the other day bc her daughter and x were holding hands, walking around and being so cute at the splash pad. I asked the mom if I could take a picture of the two holding hands and told her that it would not be uploaded anywhere online. I just thought itd make for a cute picture.
I bet that's weird, but I didn't know what else to do.
I'll admit, I've had to check myself at the park when L is playing really cute with someone.
But I've never had the urge to take a picture of a strangers kid randomly.
I must have missed that thread, but a couple years ago we went to the Halloween thing they have at the mall here, and we stopped at a bench so I could take pictures of Will in his costume. Some Asian woman ran up, took several rapid-fire photos of him before we could stop her and ran off.
DH and I looked at each other like, WTMF just happened?!?
I was super weirded out by that, and still am.
Your sig pic is the freaking cutest thing EVER...esp in that outfit.
