One out of many important things for the whole family to do is to have dinner together. Researchers began reporting the benefits of family dinner about a decade ago,focusing mainly on how it affects children. Studies show that those families who eat dinner at least 3 or 4 times a week together,benefit in many ways.

    Eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier relationships. Children have better grades at,school and are better adjusted as teens and adults,and the entire family enjoys healthier nutrition. For many families,eating dinner together proves to be a good and effective way to reduce the risk of youth crimes,and helps to raise healthier children. It is also a great time to share the events of the day,discuss news and ideas and just be together and enjoy each other's company.

    During dinner time parents have better opportunity to show that they are the prior to their children. Sitting at the same table and sharing meals is where and when parents can find out more about their children's school performance,daily activities and attitudes toward life. When parents have all this information they can better direct their kids toward positive things in life. They also have better chance to reduce the possibility that children will get involved with alcohol,tobacco,and illegal drugs.

    However,family researchers say that the benefits of family dinner by no means can be considered as automatic (必然的,当然的) . Parents can sit down to dinner with their kids every day and achieve nothing. if there is too much arguing going on,if there is no meaningful conversation or,what is even worse,if there is just plain silence during gathering.
