[quote=Anonymous]I think it's important to have family time, but I don't think it has to be mealtime. If it was important to my daughter to sit away from us when we ate meat, I would either allow it and arrange other family time or I would choose mealtime as family time and make a meal that she does not find objectionable. If you have a child who is truly miserable to sit at the dinner table, there is no quality family time happening. One other thing. I find that when my kids feel really strongly about something, but their decision poses a problem for me, I involve them in the solution. This works really well in my house. [/quote]
