Camera's are frowned upon here by licensing. Looks like they'll want sight AND sound soon. We have the new sleep regulations coming and it was unclear if we would be allowed to use camera's to be counted as sight for instances like when infants are napping in another room etc.
I had camera's installed inside my home for my own liability purposes and I had a school ager walk out of my home while I was in the bathroom (some of you will recall a few years back). During the investigation, they tried to make it seem like if I had the camera's as a replacement for supervision. As in, I had camera's to monitor the kids so I didn't have to personally monitor them. I hear that's generally the opinion of most analysts when a provider has camera's/video baby monitors inside
