[quote=Anonymous]The meal isn't as important as time spent together. As long as you're doing that, everything is fine. Honestly, I know no older kids and only two adults that are super picky eaters, and eat the way that a 3 year old might. One of them has ISSUES that were likely not considered such when he was growing up, and therefore never addressed, and the other is eating exactly the way he was brought up (meat and potatoes). My teenager and her friends of all stripes, eat pretty much every type of cuisine, not really because they were exposed to it at home as little kids, but because they're growing up in an area where there are kids from diverse backgrounds, and they get to eat like their friends do. And there are no kids that don't know how to use their forks and knives, or to chew with their mouths closed, although there are many that don't do family dinners for various scheduling reasons.
