First take into account school hours which pretty much every child has to go through, and moreover a few additional hours with a nanny before your parents come home will not wreck a child's psyche.
Second, your parents are not your personal servants, if having a househelp frees up their time to spend with their kid, how does it concern you? Moreover after a certain age if you cannot make yourself a basic meal, maybe consider that you have bigger issues to deal with
Third, bit of an overstatement to assume that they are too busy for their children you don't know individual circumstances or conditions
fourth, the workload eases up as they move up the ladder
