Can I be sued for posting a video on Youtube?

I shot some video's of my son's baseball game 2 weeks ago and uploaded them to Youtube. I just found out that a parent from the team wants to sue me because his son was in the video and I didn't get the parents permission. Can they sue me for this???

no, they cannot sue you.
He does not have the right, and the most that youtube will do to you is remove the video
Tell the kid's parent to get a life

They have no grounds to sue you, but you shouldn't post videos of other people's children online without their permission. There are plenty of reasons why somebody wouldn't want videos of their kids to be made available to the public. Do the right thing and take it down.

Make sure that your video is in the right format--MP4 for youtube. you should use leawo video to flv converter to convert your video to mp4 or flv before you upload video to video sharing websites http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=Uqt&q=site%3Aleawo.com%2Fvideo-flv-converter%2F&aq=f&oq=&aqi=just have a try

No they can't. There is no expectation of privacy when playing in a baseball game.

laugh at her...there is nothing she can do...

edit the video and reupload it. you can do that with internet explorer. i doubt a lawyer would take the case for free and would probably want 5,000 dollars upfront and 500 dollars an hour to persue a frivilous law suit which would probably be thrown out of court.
