As usual during school holidays, we talk all things parenting on Thursdays in the Self Care Corner. This morning we’re talking “How to Raise an Athlete”, the importance of sports in a child’s life, and recognising when they might have a special talent. We also explore what sport can offer children beyond medals and trophies. Joining us for this conversation is Professor Phoebe Runciman from the Division of Sport and Exercise Medicine at Stellenbosch University.
