Is Parenting A Private Matter Or Jesus, Jane Has No Control Over Her Little Tearaways At All At All?

‘THERE BUT for the grace of God go I’. A mantra that serves so many well who have the foresight to accept their own parenting journey has been filled with trying days when despite their best efforts they fell well short of their own standards.

Raising a family is not easy, all parents know this and would hate for someone to judge them on their worst day in the job. So, baring all this in mind, local residents in Tramore have come together to intensely malign Jane McHacklin’s ‘parenting’, if that’s what you could call it.

“They’re always swinging out of her, and the eldest fella is already off the rails. D’ya ever see him when she’s walking to the shop, he’s forever running across and back on the roads,” observed one local gossip, keen to judge everyone but themselves.

“The screams out of the one in the pram. Christ. Does she not know there’s people watching. She’s no idea how to discipline them,” added another willing participant.

“Banging sticks against people’s wall the middle fella was the other day and she didn’t say a thing. Zane, what sort of name is Zane?” pointed out a neighbour of McHacklin’s.

“I wouldn’t mind but her own parents were lovely people. The mother kept the house awful tidy. But have you caught a glimpse of her hallway when the door’s open? There’s war zones in better order. How do the kids stand a chance going forward?” concluded one neighbour, pondering if a call into social services would cheer her up.
