Foster babies photos

Hi

I would like to know if you are allowed to post photos of your foster kids on the internet. I am a ametuer photography and I use my foster babies as subjects (they are soooo beautiful). Both the parents and the agency are aware of my websites. But, nothing is in writing. Can you get into trouble posting photos of the kids?

Yes, you can get into trouble. We are not allowed to post pictures of our fk's.

we were told never to post photos you can have your license revoked. It is a violation of the child's privacy.

Thanks!!! I'll remove the photos right away. I am about to adopt my oldest baby, so now is definitely not the time to get into any trouble.

We are doing fost/adopt, but I know the laws are still the same while they are "foster". But we have a family blog at blogspot to share what is going on with our family. We got permission but have to have it very highly blocked and only signed in approved members can view our blog. Our workers said that yes, you can get in trouble for just posting pictures on a public website.
