[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I let my elementary age kids read at the table at breakfast when we are all coming and going. If we need to do a family check in to plan for the day, I ask everyone to look up for a few minutes. If one kid is eating to get ready for sports or we’re not having a full meal as a group, I also let them read because it keeps my kids from fighting and it keeps my super slow eater at the table - otherwise he gets bored and wanders off and then wonders why he is hungry 30 min later. If we sit down to a family meal, we put away books and phones/iPads and talk to each other. [/quote]
