utube. We just conceded that this was something we ultimately could not
police effectively; and that it really wasn't a battle worth taking on.
Brian - I agree with your stance. It's almost impossible to monitor parent
behavior. However...
I'm assuming the most pressing concern most people have about this is what
degree of liability is the school responsible for if there is an egregious
act by a parent. If it is a school event, isn't the school responsible for
policing proper behavior at said event? I guess the school can ban all
recording devices on school property... But, imagine the uproar that will
create...
David - If you're willing to share, I would love to have a look at your
disclosure policy.
