Ask BT!

With my husband working late shifts and my oldest teen in practice at dinner time, it is very hard to sit and have family meals.

Busy Bodies

Dear BB:

There's no hard-fast rule that families have to eat together every day. While that sure would be nice, it's just not a reality for a lot of us. (That said, is it possible for the whole family to sit down together for a meal on a certain day each week?)

On the remaining weekdays, we should try not to use MIA family members as an excuse to skip meal-sharing with other members of the family. In your case, you and your teen could sit down to a nice (late) dinner and use it as a chance to catch up and unwind. Wouldn't that be nice? You'd still enjoy the benefits of eating together.
