  Just breakfast. Its her Tv time then and I can get some things done while she is eating and watching her shows. Lunch and dinner are both at the table and the TV is tuned off.

• Yup, I didn't for the longest time but he has an eating issue and will pick at food and we found out that he eats better if you just give him food and he plops down somewhere and eats whenever (it can take him 2 hours to eat 2 pieces of toast). As long as he eats

• I'm like you, every once in a while I'll let them sit in the living room & eat breakfast while they watch cartoons

• Sometimes I will lay out a blanket on the floor and they use "breakfast in bed" tables. They love when they can "have a picnic" while watching a movie.

• My kids and I are watching TV right now...eating cereal out of the box!  Yes, we eat every meal in the living room watching TV.

  Equal opportunity,  NOT equal outcome.

• We eat breakfast in the living room most mornings, but we almost always eat lunch and dinner in the dining room at the table together.

• At my parent's house, there is a TV in the kitchen. So any time we eat there, she definitely watches TV. At home, breakfast and lunch are sometimes eaten in front of the TV. Dinner is sometimes eaten as a picnic in front of the TV, but very rarely. I generally insist on turning off the TV and eating dinner at the table.

• Our dining room is downstairs and the TV is in the living room upstairs, so rarely do we eat meals remotely near our television.  However, it is a HUGE treat sometimes for us to eat dinner or treats while having "family movie night."  Last night we watched RV and ate wings and the kids thought it was the best!
