Three American universities conducted studies on the eating habits of youngsters. They found that kids whose families eat together regularly were healthier.
"Children who regularly have meals with their parents, according to a recent article in the New York Times about the research, 'eat more fruits, vegetables and calcium-rich foods, ingest more vitamins and nutrients, and consume less junk food.'"
Though it's tough to make time for family meals, it's worth the effort.
