just wanted to make sure no one thought this was referring to child abuse in a sexual or physical sense. This is referring to the teaching of children by people not certified by public or private educational institutions that license this kind of work. They also involve the children in volunteer work that often totals more than 60-90 hours per month, but the parents do not feel that their children are being victimized by this so the suit is dead in paperwork.0
