On Wednesday show Niall Boylan spoke about a story that has upset many parents.

One anonymous mum called Sanctimommy took to Facebook to rant about parents not making enough of an effort at the school gate.

‘Ladies’, she began, ‘even if you aren’t getting out of the car at drop off, can you please try a little. I look around as I’m walking my daughter to the front door and all we see is rat nest hair, no makeup, eye bags out to wherever and I’m not 100% but I think I smell morning breath coming from these cars. Damn.’ Take some pride,’ the anonymous writer says.

Niall asked listeners - should parents make an effort with their appearance at the school drop off?
