Ramblings

So the past few weeks in my Early Childhood Education classes have been VERY interesting. We've been going over childcare laws that have been passed recently in North Carolina and those that are expected to pass soon.  According to our instructors, it won't be too many more years before it will be illegal to have a childcare center or home child care center without having a degree.  The push to help children with their social and emotional well being is another huge issue being looked at by the state.  There are several laws now about what you can read to a child in your center, what you can give them to drink,etc. etc.  So what is your take on it? Too much government intrusion?  Let me know what you think!
