My husband is Korean and we currently live in Korea. Eating here is traditionally just that...you sit down and everyone mostly just eats. Quickly. No pauses, no lingering. Eat. Eat. And eat some more. And then...when everyone's finished...then you talk. Even after five years of being in Asia, I'm still not used to eating that way! So I often take breaks in between stuffing my mouth with food ;) ...but when I do, my mother-in-law (or whichever aunty is present) always always always asks me if I've already finished...as in "that's it!???? that's all she's eating????" It has become a joke now between my husband and I whenever we eat with his family ;) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09191418457374791980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-15606335563742149762014-03-24T11:32:38.031-04:002014-03-24T11:32:38.031-04:00a tip on how to get kids to talk to you about thei...a tip on how to get kids to talk to you about their day at dinnertime - we play 'highs and lows'.

"do you think a robot will one day be a means of transportation?" "Did you know that when you look at a molecule from a different angle, they look entirely different?" etc<br />So it finally ends up with my husband the giant science nerd having nerd conversation with our son, while I listen to my daughter talk about all the horses at her riding horse club. Those two can't shut up. <br />My husband and I are adepts of dinner with the kids only at weekends, the rest of the time, we do what Pamela Druckerman describes: dinner for the parents when the kids are in bed. <br />Also, I love Jenny's posts!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12551412245076373516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-66644216689272765182014-02-25T03:37:12.247-05:002014-02-25T03:37:12.247-05:00in our house my almost 6 years old daughter can no...in our house my almost 6 years old daughter can not stop talking during dinner time and we are like less talking and more eating.

It really was like magic! I (copying the example) said, gosh it must have been a drag not to get to play outside at school today. He said, "what?!" and then almost immediately "I didn't have anything to play with. Everyone was doing other things. I was feeling sad. I walked around by myself." This from a little guy who really doesn't share about his day. <br /><br />Thanks so much for your post! Because of it, I was able to help my son through a tough moment.
