Nanny Diaries

Just read his long time pending book- Nanny Diaries. Funny and sad at the same time, my heart went out to the boy starving for his parents' company. Sent me on a guilt trip too.
The book could have been snappier though I don't mind it being roundabout - more of it to read.
I was left strangely dissatisfied with the end and was wondering what could have been- she should have let the straight talk stay on the tape, jolting the parents to reality, telling them in no uncertain terms that they have to bring up their child themselves rather than let the child be brought up by the nanny! And she should have definitely collected her fair wages!! By fair means or foul!
