Day Care Licensing Managers "If I Only Had a Brain"

KELOLAND.com | Parent: Day Care Provider Had Too Many Kids

As the Scarecrow sang in the Wizard of Oz, "If I only had a brain."

From the article on what state child day care licensing unelected bureaucratic managers had to say:

"We've spent a lot of time discussing that and we felt as if we made the right decision we made at the time," Sioux Falls Health Director Jill Franken said. Franken says when the city inspected the daycare there was no indication that any of the kids were in danger, she just had more children than the law allow."


Being overcapacity is a danger.

From the article:

"In-home day care providers can only watch 12 children in Sioux Falls, city citations show at one point she was caught watching 17 kids."

Too many children...danger.

Do state government unelected bureaucratic managers need a tornado to swirl them up and set them down in the Land of Oz to get a brain?
