In this episode, our guest, Lavinia Pohiva, a Mental Health practitioner, touched on the stigma associated with mental health in our Tongan community and the repercussions of the pandemic and how it affected our young people.
This episode brings to you candid and honest advice on parenting and the difference in raising our children who are born and bred in a foreign country (Australia) which is actually home to them in every sense of the word. It highlight the dilemmas they face when growing up in a Western culture and environment while still strongly attached to original homeland and its own culture and traditions which parents wish to instil in them.
