table rules

Growing up, my family had the rule that there was no singing at the dinner table. I was surprised to find out that other families didn't break into song at the drop of a hat like we did.

With my children, our dinner table rule is that there are no animals at the table. Animals include, but are not limited too, toys, stuffed animals, animal noises, and eating like animals.

Maybe one day, those rules will work. There are always loop-holes too, like a kid who is asked not to sing at the table later has to go potty and sings full blast, so the whole table is serenaded with "I am a child of God" from the bathroom.
