I don't mind regulation in a volunteer sort of way. If you want to take your kids to a known safe school, then you look for those certified teachers. But I would hate for a regulatory commission to have the authority to shut down a school that hasn't committed any wrong doing except for not being registered.

Do you think any of those old masters who came to whatever country they are in illegally would risk going to the authorities to get registered? Nope they just wouldn't teach and we'd all be the worse for it.
