The biggest problem is that the government was too involved in the first place. We all want children to be safe, and taken care of in a safe environment. However, most people feel the way to ensure that is to have government licensing. There is no need for that. Instead, there should be some private body that certifies day care providers. If you want your child in a certified day care – fine. If you want your uncertified neighbor to look after your child for an hour in the morning – again fine.
There is no need for any law covering this situation in the first place.
Okay. I’m off my soapbox now. Everybody can resume what they were doing.
