QUESTION
Is it legal to video and post kids over to play with my kids in my home? Kids know it's for a vlog. Do parents have to consent?

More details to this question:
I run a vlog. I film the kids. They love it. I know in public places, when their friends come up to the car or say hi in a public place or just random kids at park, I can post with no permission. But what about when playmates comes over to our house and we film for the vlog? They kids all know it's for the vlog. Do I need to get permission every time from every kids parent to post on our vlog? Also what about when a neighbor kid come over to play in our own yard?

If it's a video shot in a public place (like a park), you don't need permission. If it's shot in a private location, like your home, it's best to ask the parents for permission. It's even better to get them to sign a release. If they sign a release for "any video filmed" then your covered going forward.
