CNA938 Rewind

In ‘Made in SG’, Melanie Oliveiro explores the topic, “The Importance of the Father-Son Relationship” with Anita Krishnan-Shankar, a therapist at Alliance Counselling.

Krishnan-Shankar will discuss these findings as well as talk about what she notices about typical father-son relationships in Singapore – why some fail to connect with each other; what guidance a son needs from his Dad; and the challenges that come with raising a teenage son.
