People taking pictures of your kids

For example, someone's taking photos in a park and your kids happen to be in the shot. How do you all feel about this? I'm not talking posed photos here. I'm talking about people taking general photography, like a playground setting.

In the last week or so, I've heard of several stories of people who are talking photos of picturesque settings, only to have parents freak out because their kids were potentially in the shot. For example, a guy wanted a picture of some pretty elaborate playground equipment in San Francisco and was accosted by some overprotective parents whose kids were playing in the area.

In my mind, these parents are overreacting. I recognize the potential for perverts but aren't we just feeding paranoia here? I certainly don't get worked up when people are taking pictures around my nieces and nephews. Do people really fear this that much?
