[quote=Anonymous]My kids have activities that have evening hours, and those hours are not the same as each other. When we are all home, probably one night Mon-Fri, we all eat together. Whoever is home around 6-6:30 eats together. No one in my house can wait to eat until after 7, everyone gets hungry. So different combinations of us eat at different times. We are a family of five, and sometimes this is nice so DH and I get to focus on just one or two kids at a time, while kid #2 or #3 is at an activity. We always eat together at home on Sunday nights, and usually it ends up one or two other nights a week. It's just not possible the other nights. (I have a dancer- so to "prioritize" family dinners would mean she could not do her activity at all based on when classes are held). I grew up similarly and I managed to have good table manners and the ability to make dinner conversation. And when we do sit down together I am certainly not dealing with cloth napkins![/quote]
