[quote=Anonymous]NP here - My kids are a little younger than this so I'm following with interest. I am honestly surprised to hear how intensely people feel about very small children getting up from the table when they're done. I understand needing to ask permission and being excused, but apart from tradition (which is usually worth being questioned for validity), what is the value in making a really young kid sit at the table when they're done eating? What's the point? I'm a stickler about please, thank you, saying sorry, sharing, and picking up, but this one stumps me. When my almost-3yo is done, we're happy if she wants to sit with us some more but also happy to let her get down and play with her toys. Why is this bad manners?[/quote]
