Family Meals Define What Family Is

Posted by Adrienne Martini

You. You right there letting your kid watch Boobah while you catch up online. You. You're doing it wrong.

So are you. Yes, you.

And you, too.  

Every parent is doing it wrong. It just depends on who you ask. To some, single-parent households will warp the kids. Same-sex parent households are a one-way ticket to delinquent town. To the extra hyper, parents who don't do the whole attachment thing are raising brats and bullies. And to the extra mellow parent, those AP people are asking for trouble.

So it's startling to wander across an essay that suggests that no matter how you do it, as long as you provide stability and certain touchstones like family meals, it'll all turn out OK. Unless, like the picture above, you feed the horse from the table. That's just plain wrong.
