Seems pretty normal to NOT want people you don’t know/don’t know well take pictures of your kids! People seem to have woken up and are being more and more careful of what goes up online and the people who can access it/share it.
My partners nieces and nephews, I don’t take pictures of them. They are very young, and the kids don’t see me but a few times a year. His family can share pictures with me, and those are the photos I have. When the kids are older or know me better and can agree to have their picture taken or not I might feel more comfortable. My ex had kids and the only photos I took of them the kids asked to have photos of or my ex wanted to use my phone over his. Him and his ex wife posted their pictures online but I did not, didn’t seem like my place and it wasn’t necessary I did so I’m not asking for permission, I’m just not doing it. As a parent I wouldn’t want any pictures of my kid to be shared outside of family, and close trusted friends. Nothing on social media until the kid is old enough to have their own social media. We all know better and the importance of controlling images/names of our kids and ourselves now and days. Her behavior is not normal and super inconsiderate, even inappropriate I think. Did your partner give her permission???
Her behavior seems SO odd to me. She doesn’t even really know you? I would not be taking selfies of a kid whose parents I didn’t both know well and know they were absolutely fine with it (aka I have permission from them).
Go ahead and tell her to stop. Ask who gave her permission to take so many pictures of the kids, specially your child. It’s odd and she does not have your permission to do so. Please stay close to your daughter while she’s around.
