My niece was molested by her Kumon Math & Reading Tutor at the tutoring center that she was studying at. Why are there no laws that require all private tutors and tutoring companies to have teaching licenses just like regular teachers in schools? There are so many children who are raped and molested by their tutors at their homes or at tutoring centers. I strongly feel that tough laws should be enacted by every state and township that regulate private tutors.
