Where and how do we find the capacity to care? Given everything that demands our attention daily, how can we be asked to care about 'one more thing'? Mia Von Scha chats to Phemelo Motene at 702 Talk Radio about how can we find empathy for others when we are already so overwhlemed with our lives, work and family. Teaching Kids to Mind Their Manners: How to Raise a Polite Child. Children may be born with a number of innate abilities, but behaving politely is not one of them. The onus is on you the parent, to teach your little fair lady or gent how to behave in polite society…why do manners matter? In this conversation, Mia Von Scha and Naledi Moleo discuss how we can raise children with manners in a respectful and meaningful way. They also look at cultural differences in teaching manners and how manners can help children to succeed in business and life. Mia Von Scha chats to Naledi Moleo on SAfm about Communicating With Your Children. They discuss some common parenting mistakes that most people don't realise they're making; they look at the importance of communication in general across all areas of life; and they discuss some tips on improving your relationships with your own children and helping them to make it through childhood with their sense of self-worth in tact. They also chat about Mia's upcoming workshop "How To Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk" and why workshops like this are so important in terms of raising children who will navigate adulthood successfully.

Mia Von Scha chats to Naledi Moleo on SAfm about Phubbing. They look at how our cellphone obsessions can harm relationships. Phubbing (or Phone Snubbing) is when you’re in the company of your other half and they spent most of their time on the phone. New research suggests that 22.6% say it causes conflict in their relationships and 36.6% say it’s made them feel depressed… Mia and Naledi examine how big a factor phubbing is in relationships and what can be done about it.
Arguing is an inevitable part of life. Each of us has different needs, values and beliefs, and we are unlikely to have a partner or children who share our opinion on every topic. So what can we do to ensure that we argue effectively and that the way that we start and end our arguments is aimed at building relationships rather than breaking them down? Mia Von Scha chats to Naledi Moleo on SAfm's Talk Shop about how to argue constructively, how to get your point across without hurting your loved ones, and how to improve your relationships through your discussions.
