Don't take pictures of Italian kids!
Just as an FYI for anyone who was thinking about coming to Italy and taking pictures of children on playgrounds: don't do it! Apparently some kid on the playground next to Alma Mater thought they saw some person take a picture out the window of the hostel. (Don't worry, my window isn't near the playground, and I wouldn't be taking pictures of them, I would be playing with them.) He told his parents, and two angry parents at the front desk became a crowd of fifteen which became a crowd of fifty. After the hostel director and the police were called, they're gone--two hours later. Methinks Stefano at the front desk needs at least a carton of cigarettes by now! So much for nice quiet hostel in a nice quiet park! I found the whole thing hilarious, and yes, I know I have a sick sense of humor!

yes, you do have a sick sense of humir, but you get it from your father's side of the family.
Your mother's side is perfectly normal.
Follow up to this: apparently there had been a sicko that was taking pictures of the kids on the playground, so it was kind of understandable why the parents were paranoid. On the other hand, the well-meaning NOISE participant who took the picture had quite a shock.
