By Kelly on November 7, 2016 Parents regularly tell me that the highest area of manner “pain” for them is table manners. We eat three meals a day. Even when your kids go off to school and the patient cafeteria workers get to observe them for 5 meals a week, you can STILL be brought to the verge of insanity by the licking, shoveling and tooting that takes place at YOUR dinner table during the other meals. I know you. You have told me. And as a mom to three kids, I totally get it. Although my kids are of college and high school age, I occasionally need to remind. (Cough. Cough.) The kids would refer to it as nagging. I refer to it as doing my job as Mom; teaching them important life skills that will make others find them a pleasure to be around. And maybe even help them get a job someday. No one wants to dine with a boor. Oh noooooo. No one. I’m often asked if there is any magical way to have your darling dinners minding their meal time manners....
