Irish Mother: In My City 85% Are Immigrants Who Don’t Speak Irish; I Almost Never Leave Home Because I’m Scared!

EXCERPT:

UNKNOWN: "I'm from Dublin, but I come to Mayo every weekend. But I wanted to talk about what the situation is like where I live, because you have not seen what is coming yet, and I have. Where I live is about 85 percent foreign nationals. I can walk down the street on any given day, walk into the supermarket, and I don’t hear an Irish conversation. I hear foreign people everywhere. My child is one of 30 children in our class and she’s the only Irish child. She came home crying from school a few weeks ago because she doesn’t understand what any of her friends are saying. The children revert back to their own languages when they’re not being taught. She literally cannot understand the conversations around her. But when — when Halloween came around there a few months ago, last year she was allowed to dress up — sorry, the year before last, she was allowed to dress up, but this year she wasn't allowed to dress up. And when I asked the school why, they said they didn’t want to offend people.”
