Single kids manners lesson. Beware the table monsters.
These days it seems that children/families rarely have an opportunity (or take the time) to eat together at the table. More and more we are on the run, eating as we go. Children spend a lot of time eating in the car, in front of the TV or at fast food restaurants. Because these environments are so casual and everyone is in a rush, we tend to expect, and exhibit, fewer manners. Technically, the guidelines for eating and table manners have not changed much, Manners are still expected, regardless of where you are, what you¿re eating, how rushed you might be or who you are eating with. Basic table manners are the same for both formal and informal situations.
