Radio Workshop: Difficult conversations with parents

Ikamva Youth

Welcome to the Radio Workshop!

Sometimes a difficult conversation starts with our parents because we feel like the air needs to be cleared. Maybe we need to reveal something so that we can move on, understand each other better. The Radio Workshop spoke to a range of people who sat down with their parents and had that conversation, despite their fear.
