Why the nanny snapped

I have to say, my thoughts followed the same line, especially once I read about it. The nanny was overworked, stressed and worried about money — and her employers’ response was to offer her more hours, and refer her to an additional part-time job? Hmm.

Nah. This story’s complicated. Obviously, you don’t kill children. But just as obviously, you don’t respond to poor people in need by adding to their stress.
