you know, I've had people tell me Grace was an absolute idiot.
Did she not hear a scrambler at their own fault that she got killed?
Why did she not just stay back?
Why did she cross the road?
How dare I stand up for my daughter?
How dare I protect her name?
How dare I advise and let everybody know what happened to Grace?
As a mother, yeah, it is because I also have another child here living in this house and Martin is here and
You know, we were told by the GardaΓ that there is protection around us.
You know, anything like that, like we used to report straight away.
You know, if we ever noticed anyone around in the house or anything like that, that we would have that protection.
But it shouldn't come to where my daughter had to die for me to get that test.
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
As I said, nothing can hurt me as much as it is my child.
And to know that she died the way she died, she was failed by a system.
You know, Grace's Law is there, but it means absolutely nothing unless there's enforcement in this law, which is why I'm pushing for those enforcements, which is why I'm pushing for the Garda Commissioners to speak to us, which is why I'm pushing to go back to speak to Dara O'Brien and Sean Canney in regards to, which we were promised that that would happen down the line.
We want stricter rules around e-scooters and e-bikes.
You know, I'd like to see that Grace's Law at some stage will become Grace's Laws.
that there's more measures put into that law and that it's a very strict law, you know, I wouldn't like to see another parent go through what I've gone through.
