[quote=Anonymous]My kids are 3 and 5 and in the past year or so, we've been able to sit down as a family for dinner. We all eat around 5:45 and the kids finish up around 6:30. We try to sit down together for that time, but the kids are slow eaters so I don't sit down with them the whole time. For the most part, we eat the same foods. When my youngest was an infant, I was too focused on helping him eat or taking care of him, so I often didn't eat dinner until after his bedtime. My advice would be to try to set a routine for the evening where you can sit down at the table together for even a few minutes (even if you don't eat at that time). It should get easier once your youngest is older.[/quote]
