Does your family eat dinner together?

We do, but my kids can't exactly go anywhere yet so there isn't any conflict yet. I hope to make sure and keep it up as they grow older though, as much as possible. Stats say kids do better in school and are more likely to stay out of drugs and violence and such if the family eats dinner together. Not sure if that's because of the dinner, or because families who make the effort to eat together also make more of an effort to teach their kids to avoid that sort of thing. Either way, I think it's a good idea.

We used to until they all grew up and moved out. Now they come home for dinner on Wednesday nights.
