Just as you could state 10 reasons why everyone should be licensed, I am sure unlicensed providers could state 10 reasons why they should not have to be. It is just a personal opinion--both ways. Ultimately in the end.....it should be the parents opinion that counts. As they are the ones going into the home/center 2 or more times per day and it is their child. Seashell stated it quite well.

And to say that--I quote "Anyone who thinks the state has no business regulating a daycare has no business running one." is quite a harsh statement to unlicensed providers because you don't know them nor do you know what kind of program they offer and use. Being licensed is just a piece of paper that took a lot of bs to get. There are good and bad in both licensed and unlicensed.
