In my view, dinner is about sharing a meal, and family dinner means having dinner together with our caring and loving family. It’s an experience that isn’t enjoyable when done alone. In many households, people tend to have dinner separately—some request to eat in their room, others may have dinner in the kitchen, or even eat at midnight. This is not ideal.
The reason it’s not ideal is that family dinner is a small, yet significant way to live happily and share our daily experiences with each other. If you have something planned for the day, you can discuss it with your parents and siblings, which is an excellent way to resolve any issues.
I remember when my father was alive, sometimes he would come home late at night. My mother always made an effort to have dinner together as a family. Often, she served us our meals but would wait for my father to join us, even if it meant she went hungry at times. My father would always say that these small efforts to be together matter a lot.
While the fact remains that we need to eat, it’s far better when we share that meal as a family. Having meals together fosters a sense of togetherness and connection. Family dinners provide an opportunity to share experiences, feelings, and thoughts. Eating as a family also encourages healthier food choices and better table manners.
Based on my experience, family dinners are associated with better academic performance and improved grades. And it is a big occasion to remove anxity, stress and depression. Sometimes you are pretending like that nothing happens but our parents feel that thing. And they indirectly motivate us. Which is only possible when you have time to sit together and have a great time.
I know sometimes it is difficult to join our family for dinner. But at least we can try to attend this beautiful moment 3 to 4 days a week. And it is a thing which is the desire of every parent. To have a beautiful time with each other. Dinner is just an excuse to spend time together.
So I must prefer that work is compulsory in our daily life. But family is on peak. So we must spend our time with them and provide a good time to each othet infact of hard time.
I hope you will agree with my opinion. Thanks for watching. Stay safe stay alive. Allah Hafiz.
From your write up, I am more convinced of the importance of family meal.
It is indeed necessary and lovely.
