Mother of three Gillian lost her husband to suicide six and a half years ago, and the interview recently with the family of Eden Heaslip who took his life in September of this year, led to her contacting the Joe Finnegan show.
Gillian has three young children and has had to guide them through life on her own since the death of their father.
She says though that added to the grief she and her family have had to experience , she's also had problems with other children's behaviour towards them.
Gillian told Joe that one of the reasons she wanted to talk on the show was to get the message out that parents need to take ownership of their children's behaviour in all circumstances.
