The Silent Stalker

By Sarah Dickser


Rushing around is what I hear most mom say. They are never home and when they are they have a to do list a mile long so when the chance arises to get out of the house on a "date" do they run at the chance and call just any one to babysit the kids are is there as much consideration in who is watching her kids as a choosing a car?

Today many people are finding that after leaving their home with a babysitter they have found their children to be fine but finding some of their things missing, jewelry, toys and house hold items, to stop this problem they created a camera that can be installed like a security system. The only problem with this system is that it is illegal to use this program without the babysitter knowing. Many people are disagreeing and are saying that it should not be illegal- what do you think? Let me give you some pros and cons and then you decide why it should either be made legal or illegal:

The first reason to why it is illegal is because it is not only an invasion to someone's personal space but this type of video can also be used as a black mail, today some people will take anything that they can to use against each other, and while being watched while not knowing there is a possibility they are going to be doing something embarrassing, and or something that they do not necessarily want to share with the world, and can cause great embarrassment if it is shared, so it can be used against you this is one of the reasons of why it is illegal.

When I mention security systems I am specifically talking about security cameras, or spy cameras as some people have been known to call them. The only problem with this system is that it is illegal to use this program without anyone you have invited into your home knowing. Many people are disagreeing and are saying that it should not be illegal- what do you think? Let me give you some pros and cons and then you decide why it should either be made legal or illegal:

When you have chosen someone to watch your kids, friend or stranger/recommendation you want to know the person you hired to watch will follow the rules you have set out; you are also going to want to make sure that they treat your kid's right and not acting anyway in-appropriately. This makes for a very good reason that moms and parents are pushing the private camera technology in their homes.

When someone know they are being watched they will be more careful to not come around because security cameras are allowed as evidence in courts and can convict a stalker. When it comes to placing a camera in your home there are a few more rules the courts will have to allow based on expectation of privacy however if a stranger enters your home its your invasion of privacy that has just been broken and you will be glad you had a camera recording everything.

When it comes to protecting your kids you just can get enough assurances, however putting cameras all around your home may not be the best solution as it can be quite expensive, and not all the things caught on tape can be used in court. If you think someone is abusing your kids talk to law enforcement and see what steps you can take to prevent such things and or catch someone so that you have a strong court case against them- hidden cameras, a good security system can help.
