**Mum Issues Stark Warning That Children in Tallaght are Unsafe Due to "Dangerous Predator"***
1w ago00:58:45Tap to summarizeWe are shocked by what we heard on Opinions Matter today about the man in the estate in Tallaght and the claims by various locals that he is danger to local children.... They have branded him a "predator" and say that local children are "unsafe".They told us about they believes he is "grooming" local children and that parents need to be highly vigilant!!!We are also speechless by the number of parents in Tallaght (in various estates) who have gotten in touch to say that they no longer feel safe letting their children out to play!!! We have had reports from various locals who say they have seen a local man exposing himself while children play nearby! They say Tallaght is now a "no go" for children.... We did not realise that things were that bad in Tallaght - the number of messages we got from worried parents is huge!
