Sit-Down meals has changed
Today families do not sit down to eat how they used to do before, because parents have to work late, or the children eat after them because they have projects to do and they don't have enough time to eat or they go to eat with their friends. There are cases where families gather once a year or a month because their parents have to work in another country, or they are very busy all week and their free time is on weekends, but there are others that share the weekend together as a family. The family dinners are for share, talk and learn more about them.
When you share in family dinners you talk with all the members about how was their day or week and ask them about their job, what they did and others, we do that because in that way we are interested about what they did. As I said many families can not meet very often because of their work or they don'tt live in the same country, so they should meet at another time, it must be sad to spend all year waiting for the time when they arrive, because they could miss them so much. Spend a day with the family is important because in this way we know them more and we live with them in the same house, and is important to be worried about them.
In my opinion it must be important to have family meetings every night if possible, because by this way we about our family and they know about us. In my house few nights we ate together because my brother lives in another house and my sister sometimes hang out with her friends or she needs to work late at the office, so my parents and me have dinner. Knowing the family is important because in this way the family is more united.
