This is not a post of judgement. With our 24 hour world right now, access to emails, programs, etc. running at all times of the day, just curious if anyone truly has this as their daily normal. If so, I’m envious!

Yes we eat dinner together. No phones allowed at the table.
It’s one tradition I insist on having.
Sometimes it’s ten o’clock at night but sitting at the table together is a priority for me.
The rest of the meals are anarchy tho lol

My husband gets off at different times. So its hard to tell if we will have dinner together or not. Sometimes we eat together, sometimes we don't.

Awww. We do. He’s home at 5.30 every day though. Many husbands have their own biz or unpredictable hours so I know it’s not as common. But yeah we do Xx our dining table is in the middle of the huge open plan area so from there I can see the lounge hallway backyard and if I move my chair back, the front door. I also do my nails on the dining table 😂 It’s the heart of the house. All the chats and meals and hosting is done there.

My husband's schedule changes every week sometimes every few days, varying day and night. Next week he'll be out of town so video dinner it will be ☹️

Honestly I rarely sit down to eat with my kids.
Once a week or every other week we do pajama taco night where I take them to taco time in our pajamas before my sons appointment (they don’t know this but they’re in the pajamas because there’s a good chance they fall asleep on the way home from the appointment and I carry them in to bed)

We are lucky that we do sit and eat dinner all together nearly every day, there’s only 1 day a week that we generally don’t because of extra curricular stuff.

I work around my child so I always sit with him to both eat together. His dad works later so if he's around he'll eat with us but I'm not waiting on him?
