[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing should come before family dinners IMO. It's the only time we have together. No sport or activity is more important.[/quote] The 1:1 time I have spent in the car with my kids, where they are far more likely to talk about hard things, plus the time I've spent driving them with their friends, where I get to overhear and learn A LOT, is at least as valuable our dinners together. Just fyi. OP, to answer your question, no gizmos required. One meal after school, another after practice, healthy snacks in the backpack. We rarely resort to eating out, unless it's a tournament weekend.[/quote] I agree with this. Now that my oldest is in college, I miss that one-on-one time with him in the car, just the two of us. And the discussions between him and his friends in the car when carpooling was good as well, picking up lots of intel![/quote]
