Do you feel that dinner time should be family time.? How many times a week do you get to sit down with family and talk/bond during dinner.?

I remember growing up we use to all sit together at the dinner table with no tv but the older we got the more that stopped. And we all got busy with our own activities. Everyone wasn't always home at the same time eat. And my mom just stopped making dinner on a regular basis.

I have put the TV set in dining hall, because 2 things are done at one time. I was told by doctor-friend, that people tend to eat more while watching TV.

I think dinner should be family time. it seems that is the only time when you are hungry that you can get everyone together.

I think alot of families do put the t.v on, but I think that is a good time to spend time with your family and talk about how your day went.
