A horrid place where parents dump children

First of all, I would like to congratulate the author of the book Horrid High , Payal Kapadia, who has done an excellent job.

The story was marvellous and fun to read. Although there are many pros i

Quotes by Payal Kapadia (?)

“Wake up the baby,’ I order Aarti. So we sing loudly, clang saucepans and switch on Arnab Goswami. Tara sleeps through it all.”
― Payal Kapadia, Maidless in Mumbai

“During visiting hours, Sameer brings flowers that the night nurse (why is she still awake?) dispatches to the bin. ‘Hospital policy,’ she says. Mom brings home-made sweets. The nurse sends the sweets off to keep the flowers company. Hospital policy again. Sameer’s mom, who has flown in from Igatpuri to spend the week with us, brings ghastly advice. ‘Yesterday, you were living for yourself,’ she says, making it sound like I was dancing for money on the tops of bar tables. ‘Now you must live for your daughter.’ There’s no hospital policy about advice. (I checked.)”
