[quote=Anonymous]I also think TV for dinner isn't a great thing to start if you haven't already done it. My kids do snack in front of the TV sometimes, but I can tell it's "mindless" so we don't do it for meals. I also don't expect my children (2/4) to wait until everyone is done eating, but they are expected to sit at the table for about 15-20 minutes too. If they're done, they ask to be excused from the table, and their plate goes into the kitchen. There's no snacking after dinner (we do bath/bed not too long after it) unless someone ate a HUGE meal and STILL wanted a snack (rare, during growth spurts I imagine) then we say yes. [/quote]
