IRVING TOWNSHIP, Mich. – Each day before the school bus comes to pick up the neighborhood's children, Lisa Snyder did a favor for three of her fellow moms, welcoming their children into her home for about an hour before they left for school.
Regulators who oversee child care, however, don't see it as charity. Days after the start of the new school year, Snyder received a letter from the Michigan Department of Human Services warning her that if she continued, she'd be violating a law aimed at the operators of unlicensed day care centers.
....................
Snyder learned that the agency was responding to a neighbor's complaint.
Wouldn't she have to accept money for it to be unlicensed daycare???
If I want someone to watch my kid, then that's who's gonna watch my kid. Period. I don't care if there is some state agency wanting her to stop. She's just a friend watching kids. This is BS.
What about all the Grandmother's who watch multiple kids??? Arrest them all!!!!!!!!!!!!
More nanny state BS. It's gotta freakin stop somewhere. I say unlicensed daycares are where we make our stand! The first civil war started over unlicensed care providing. That's sweet.

Mackinac Center Legal Foundation Challenges State Over Union Dues for Child Care Providers Together Michigan
A newly formed public interest law firm today filed a lawsuit against the state Department of Human Services, claiming it worked with a union in 2006 to improperly place more than 40,000 home-based day-care providers into collective bargaining. The plaintiffs in the case – two Petoskey day-care providers who now must pay union dues – contend that nearly $3.7 million in dues is siphoned off annually from about 40,000 day-care providers statewide by Child Care Providers Together Michigan union. The union is a joint enterprise of the United Auto Workers and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees.
So the state of Michigan just teamed up with the UAW, and state employees union, and placed all the licensed daycare providers in a Union. Then, they took 3.7 million from their income annually in dues.
I think the helpful good neighbor's biggest sin is that she was doing this for free. I guess in a non right to work state, you don't even have the right to do a favor.

Michigan has wonderful and beautiful natural resources, and I loved growing up there, but I am so glad I don't live there anymore.
Paying union dues to the state so you can watch a couple kids in your house. I mean seriously.
So, Dem. run Michigan has one of the worst economies ever, unemployment, not even freedom to babysit...
And by the way, Obama bought chunks of GM, and gave it to the unions...
Not to subtle anymore. The days of under the table dealings between unions and the Dem party are over, I guess. Now the corruption is out in the open, and it is law. Nice.
