Who eats with their family at the dining room table?
I'm still here...been visiting my favourite blogs since I posted my previous remarks. Miss Eagle at Food From Oz has posted yet another thought provoking discussion on her blog, and would like to hear from other bloggers with their opinions on the subject (as well as memories of your childhood dining with family). It's funny how some things are clearer in our memory than others, especially the 'bad' things, rather than the 'good'. I have vivid memories of a couple of dramatic family arguments around our dining room table when I was a kid, but they were the exception to our usually harmonious dinners.

Hi Gina.
When my family was growing up we always sat at the dinning table to eat and one wouldn't dare touch there food till all was seated, and had to ask to leave the table when all had finished eating. now my family are all married and doing the same with there families. and when they visit its like they never left home.

LOL The stories I could tell. I grew up in an Irish household. I'll pop over and read her blog a little later.

we still eat at our table and it is set each meal time... only rarely do I 'allow' anyone to eat in front of the tv...
I can remember chatting with my family as a small child - you know, if more people still did this, I am sure there would be less family problems.
