[quote=Anonymous]Even Miss Manners acknowledges that the point of family dinner wasn’t to harp on table manners it was: “In reality, instruction in table manners was incidental to the main lesson, which was how to exchange ideas, frame a polite argument and, if necessary, pretend to be interested in what others had done that day. In other words, to learn to socialize. But Miss Manners supposes that you must know what has happened: the loss of nightly family dinner. That was where all this was taught, in a more or less pleasant atmosphere.” OP seems to be failing to promote a pleasant atmosphere by focusing on the wrong things. So much for adhering to Miss Manner’s advice. https://www.uexpress.com/life/miss-manners/2026/03/31[/quote]
