Nanny keeps tough job because of attachment to kid

DEAR HARRIETTE: I am the nanny to two young children whom I absolutely love, but I don't love their parents. I think that the parents can be neglectful. I don't really like the way that they speak to me, their children or to others. The mother is especially rude. My attachment to the kids is what keeps me at the job. The job is enjoyable because I love spending time with them. I'm afraid I'm not doing what is right for me, but what is right for the kids. Is it time for me to go? How do I know when it's time to move on? – Love Being a Nanny
