So on my daycare facebook page, I post super cute pictures of the kids for the parents... sometimes daily or a couple time a week. My facebook page is very protected and private and I only keep the recent parents as friends on there.
I used these apps on my iPhone for this one DCG's picture and they came out so cute. I did that black & white thing where you can make just parts of it color... Turned out so cute! I posted on FB and later that day I noticed that the dad had saved the picture into his computer and reposted on his FB wall as if it was his own making. Thats fine... BUT people were complimenting what a great picture it was and "Wow" and "your a great photographer", etc and the dad took credit for it!!!! He said "thanks! I try! and he never once said anything like "Oh yeah - her daycare provider took this" or anything!!!!
If he had tagged the picture then I could just untag him, but he completely copied the picture off my FB page so I cant do anything about it. I was so irritated by him not saying anything about who really took it so I commented on it "Wow, great picture!" and he didn't even acknowledge who took it still! Ugh.
My teenage son had great advice though... I went thru ALL my pictures on FB and added my daycare's name printed onto each photo... so if they try to take the pictures, it will have my name printed on it. I guess they could still try to crop it out, but it wouldn't look as good.
I dont mind them taking the pictures of their kids, but isn't it rude how he takes credit for the pictures and doesn't even thank me? This was a temporary family though & leaving in 2 weeks, so the day shes gone I will be deleting them anyway.
Just wanted to vent... Sheesh.
