ABSOLUTELY. Leave the kids alone. They are just children and have no choice in the matter. These photogs are vultures.

I LOVE TMZ!!!!! Also, as a public figure you subject yourself to the intrusion of privacy. If a celebrity doesnt want pictures of their kids to be taken by the papz then move out of Hollywood/LA County. How many times did you see pictures of Francesca Eastwood as a child? Like never, and they only lived about an hour from LA. It's a trade off, when you get paid literally ten's of Millions of Dollars for essentially doing nothing but chill in a super sweet RV, take some direction from a creepy director (x-men), and remember like 20 consecutive words in a row, show up at glamorous fun free events, and show up at the premier; than you are subjecting yourself to allowing some aggressive dude in the bushes taking pictures or following the cleb around town while they almost run over the pazz in their brand new Benz. Being a public figure and being paid a relatively ridiculous salary for virtually no work or little to no talent (Kardashians, Paris Hilton, the list goes). The trade off is people you don't know will annoy you. They will take your picture and make money off of it. People also take pictures of Mt. Rushmore and George Washington's kids are complaining. Ask any CEO of a top 500 company and ask how much work and effort it is to make just one million dollars alone. Celebrities get to make a lot of money for little work but part of that massive sum of money is the inconvenience that comes along with being famous. If there is going to be a law making papps pay for or get consent to publish a picture of a celebrity's kid then where is the line drawn? If I go up to Troy Akimen in a bar and ask to take a picture with him and his 17 year old son is in the background can I not put that picture on facebook? If I see Brad Pitt and get super excited and take a picture of him while walking his kid across the street do I need to contact his lawyer and get permission to add that to my Iphoto because it is stored in a cloud? This issue is to make lawyers rich not to help minor
