Irish Teacher: Ireland has always cared about its children, but it has abused and neglected them

Jennifer Horgan asks to what extent are we prioritising our children? 

As a country we’ve always ‘cherished’ our children.

A young woman called to our door the other night. She asked if I’d like to support a dog charity. I politely declined.

I like dogs, I do. But I’ve always believed in prioritising the needs of humans first, so I support human-only charities.
