Just think for a minute – are we?  It seems that morals and etiquette which are an important part of society have gone out the window.  Even single mothers or mothers and fathers can teach these important steps to our children, especially respect for one and other.  When was the last time you sat down at the table and not in front of the television and enjoyed a full meal with the members of your family.  It is amazing just listening to each person joining into the conversation about anything that happened that day.  You can certainly learn a lot and at the same time have a teaching moment for the children.  (Where to put your utensils while eating, etc.) It is sad when a young child visiting your home replies,  “we don’t eat at the table we eat in front of the television.”  They should not have to teach this at school.
