How there’s, this, need for the surveillance cameras in the nannies’ homes to be, installed, to prevent case of abuse like this one from happening, and it’s not a matter of privacy, but the welfare of young children here, off of the Newspapers, translated…
The City Council Demanded to See the Surveillance Footages, the Social Services Will Allow the Nanny to Disclose if She’d Installed the Cameras Herself
The case of the infant girl’s hitting her head from a fall, ended up dead in her nanny’s home for just the second day dead, it’d, angered the online community, and they’d, sent in countless requests to President Tsai’s FB. The councilpersons of both parties yesterday demanded the city government’s social services needed to open the public surveillances in the nanny’s community for review, or, it wouldn’t have the justified, the objective bases for the facts of the young infant’s death. The social services stated, that after they’d collected the opinions from her community, her, and the general public, they can set up a nanny info connection network, to allow the nannies to disclose if they have installed the cameras in their separate homes or not.
The eleven-months-old infant girl, Tsai died, the families were angry, the paternal grandfather of the infant girl believed, that the social services should mandate the nannies to install the surveillance in the public spaces, once there are the uncleared things, at least, there would be the footages with the truths on them. The councilman, Kuo pointed out, that the incident pointed out, the real thoughts and needs of the parents, demanded that the city government to set up a “Kaohsiung Nanny Information Resources Map”, with the columns for the nannies to disclose if they installed the video cameras in their separate residences or not, so the parents can select based off of their needs.
The councilman, Chiu told, that a lot of the nannies had installed cameras in their homes, and are willing to show the footages to the outside, the Social Services needs to evaluate quickly. The city councilwoman, Tong also told, that the nannies are usually one on one or one on two, and, no other witnesses are in place when the accidents do happen, unlike the public childcare programs, with the surveillance that can be reviewed over, and if the nannies had the cameras installed, then, this wouldn’t be a problem.
There are a total of more than 3,000 registered nannies in the city of Kaohsiung, the C.E.O. of the Kaohsiung Nanny League, Fang said, if the surveillances were install in public places, it wouldn’t be a problem, but, the places where the nannies cared for the children are usually in their own home, and, with the elders, wearing what they are all comfortable with, moving around and about in the homes, constantly being watched on-screen, the families would feel ill-at-ease.
The nanny, Lin who has a surveillance installed in her home told, she’d installed the cameras, so the parents can feel at ease, and, if the nannies had passed out, and other situations, it’s the parents who’d called it in, the cameras can protect both the nannies, and the children; she also, leaves the children in places where the camera can film them, and, she’d, moved the bathtub into the living room, where the camera was installed in her home, and, as the children were taken home, she’d, shut off the surveillance, and there wouldn’t be a matter of privacy concerns.
The head of social services, Hsieh said, that the city of Kaohsiung is willing to set up the nanny information network, and encouraged the nannies in the network to install the surveillances, for the nannies who wouldn’t mind to show their homes on the nanny network.
And so, this, is not just a matter of privacy anymore, it’s a matter of safety, for the children, to know if their young are being, well taken care of, to know if the nannies are, abusing their children that they’d left in their care, and, based off of this, there’s, no issues of privacy, like the nanny who’d installed the camera in her home, as she’d told, that she only turns the camera on when she’s caring for the children, and turned the cameras off at all other times.
