[quote=Anonymous]I actually think it's very important to eat as a family. My family all ate at the table 6/7 nights a week when I was growing up and that's the routine DH and I wanted for our family. My kids would like to eat then too, but they have learned to wait until 6pm. Totally fine if someone has a conflict one or two nights. Mostly though, I don't like how you said your kids are eating their preferred foods. What? Kids should eat identical food to parents (maybe less spicy) and definitely need vegetables. Kids watch us eat the same foods. I dated a guy in high school whose mom would put food on plates, the kids would all come out of their rooms and then take the plates back to their rooms or the family room to eat in front of the TV. I couldn't get over how weird and antisocial it was. Plus, high schoolers that get served chicken nuggets?[/quote]
