[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are 12 and 15 now. We rarely "eat dinner together"... This has been true for our whole lives for various reasons... Kids schedule, 2nd shift, toddlers making the experience miserable. For years, the toddlers would eat at the table ... My H and I would have a drink. Then the kids would get bath and bed, or bath and tv time and we would eat adult food quietly. There were times when my kids would be starving before H got home so they would eat before he got home. Then they would have ice cream and sit with us when we eat. But I don't really believe the eating together thing being so important as it is finding time to sit and talk. We have so many opportunities to be together and talk and share our day or talk about what is going on in our life's or in the world (mostly March madness right now). Snow days help. :-) Same in our family [/quote][/quote]
