I don't know if others still do it but my mother always insisted on family meals together. I have always followed her lead and insisted meals were eaten together.
It teaches culture, food appreciation, and practicing the social skills of dining and conversation. Family meals are for nourishment, comfort and support. And, food is better eaten with the people we love!
Meals for my family were definintely never hurried. Meal were a time of pure enjoyment and love of the day together.
With the Coronavirus - 19 changing the landscape of families, I sure miss my family time.
