Summary

In Wisconsin, parents can impose household rules, including fines, on adult children. Security cameras are legal in homes, but occupants should be informed to respect privacy. Cameras should not be placed in private areas like bathrooms or bedrooms. Communication within the household is crucial to address privacy concerns and ensure everyone is comfortable with camera placement and usage. If there are specific concerns about privacy or footage usage, a family discussion may help resolve these issues.
