With your family? I never see families sitting down to eat dinner anymore, Back when I was a kid we always sat at the dinner table and ate together, this seems to be such a rare occurance anymore!
I will admit that at the moment dinner at my house is sitting in front of the tv, somebody on the computer, someone else in their room, we are not all together.
A friend of a friend remarked that they have "family dinner" nearly every night, even if they just pick up fast food. They will sit at the dinner table, talk discuss the day together and eat their food all in one place.
I would love to start doing this with my kids atleast once a week to make a point of sitting down together and eat dinner.

Most times we have our evening dinner together at the dinner table. On occasions my son has had his dinner in front of the tv. I like to sit down with my hubby at the dinner table to talk about his day and what we get up to as well. If I'm alone then I eat in front of the tv or the laptop LOL

I sit down at the dining table if I eat meals with other people at my home, even if it is just with my husband. I only ever eat on my sofa to watch TV when I am alone. My husband and I make a point of sitting down together and chatting, especially when we are in the presence of children. People should talk to eachother at meal times, it is a good habit to keep families close.

Hello Babygurl!
I agree even me and my family doesn't eat all together in front of the table, sometime we eat in front of the tv. I think it's because of the change of technology. People or families doesn't get together.
