[quote=Anonymous]There is a lot of overreaction here. You *could* go the lawyer route, but it will be such a waste of time and money for something that could be resolved by just talking to the offending party. I am not even sure how much legal ground there is for suing over such footage -- the place where the video was taken is the nanny's place of employment (and expectation of privacy for an employee at the workplace is pretty limited). The MB is clearly also not using the footage for commercial purposes, where there's more grounds for requiring consent.

Just TALK to her, at least to start with, and you can take a different course of action if she doesn't react well to your concerns. The parent/nanny relationship is not an equal one and it's not necessarily because there's intentional disrespect. As a parent, I'm allowed to do all sorts of things with my kid without my nanny's permission (like taking her out of the country, piercing her ears, dropping her off at a neighbor's house while I run out for an errand, etc), but it certainly should be a fireable offense for the nanny to do those to the kid without the parents' permission. Your MB may well consider security footage from cameras in her house as something she gets to decide what to do with, just as you might feel you get to decide what to do with photos on your phone, even if other people are visible in them.[/quote]
