I suspect you can trust your family, friends etc to respect your wishes, and
you can limit the distribution through trust.
Images of children can be sourced for advertising without having to resort to
using private images.
So your basic answer is that in a world without copyright, instead of
me being allowed to say "Hey, I know you *could* just download this
straight off the internet and reuse it however you want, but I'd
really rather you didn't", the onus is instead on me to personally
vouch for the distribution of my photos on a person-by-person basis
and just hope for the best from anyone I don't know who wants a
picture of a child?
My answer is that only commercial interests, would respect your copyright.
My suggestion is that you don't post images you don't want
re-distributed in a public place.
Personal items could be covered by privacy. I don't see it useful in the
context of copyright.
For obvious reasons I do not wish to discuss children as a subject anymore.
I suggest personal material e.g a private letter, can substitute for the
purposes of the debate.
