The world now knows my daughter as the screaming African-American baby, and it's become a racial issue online. It has gone to places that I couldn't have even imagined," Bryson told WESH-2.
So I side with the people who FELT IT WAS COUNTERPRODUCTIVE FOR BRYSON GIVE THE VIDEO MORE VIEWS BY TAKING HER STORY PUBLIC
They won't get that kind of money out of a daycare center.
I do think that it would not be wrong for them to get something, if they choose to pursue it. One thing that is a result of a company having to pay a settlement is that that company is pretty careful not to let this sort of thing happen again.
well, I understand why her parents were upset. But, as long as a photographer uses the images for editorial purposes, and if he or she took them while your child was in a public setting, the photographs are generally within the law even if you do not give your consent.
So I don't believe the daycare center was wrong here.
Unfortunate incident, but I doubt the family is really entitled to any money.
In term of her behavior? well, I guess every baby girl is different, so I cannot really comment on it. When I was a baby, my parents said I was afraid of nothing. I had to take their words for it, I guess.
My daughter took a video of her son with the bunny last year when he was 2. He was crying and trying to run away. She put up the video on Facebook.
She took him back to see the bunny again this year. He ran up, sat on his lap, smiling, and giving bunny high 5's. Again, took a video.
She put up both last year's and this year's videos on FB together with the title "What a difference a year can make!"
Everyone loved seeing both those video's.
Yes, age is everything, the best thing that can be done is to forget about it and move on. Too many kids are being over protected, pretty soon they will be walking around in bubble suits with blinders on.
And, they do not really know what the end result of this will be for the child. They could certainly take the child for therapy and try to get some idea from a child psychiatrist as to what the lasting impact COULD be.
For all we know, this kid may be totally fine after a few sessions. Or, this child may develop PTSD.
We have no clue.
Which is why I think a judge would rule in favor of the family.
If someone had been trying to comfort the child and all this was was a video posted without permission, I do not think the family would get more than a small amount because the center violated their privacy.
This thing with scaring a child that badly and not comforting the child or attempting to remove her from a scary situation WHILE recording a video of a terrified child and later posting it online is what will sway a judge.
I agree. In no way did they put the child first. And safety is always going to be an issue. This is a child who is easily frightened and that may make her perfect prey for predators.
I'm not surprised it was aired by Kimmel, as he seems to find great pleasure in watching upset children on video.

Yeah, I agree. I also believe the daycare center should enforce their own policy.
This being said, I think the person should be held accountable is the person who videotaped it. If the parents want to sue millions, (not implying they will) well, good luck with that.
I think the daycare should pay for the therapist who is providing the counseling service for the kid (if she has any), and that is about it.
