  1. In my opinion, it's just necessary to have at least one family meal without the TV being on.
    First of all, when your family gets together at the table, it can give you a feeling that you aren't alone, that there're the people, who are ready to help, support and encourage you.
    Secondly, as I see it, such meals give the relatives an opportunity to talk to each other, to discuss some issues to take an importent decision together as family. In my view, this can make the family much closer.
    And finaly, having a meal without a TV switched on would be beneficial for your hearing and digestion.
    In conclusion, I'd say that such a simple thing as family meal can help to your family to remain itself.

  2. In my view it's very important for every family to spend time together without any "external noise". Unfortunately, nowadays many people prone to have a lack of close relationships. A lot of people tend to be very busy doing their rewarding work , as a result they absolutely forget about members of their own families. Chatting with each other, sharing some interests, solving problems together is the foundation of close family where everybody is happy and delighted. Besides, many divorces are caused by misunderstanding.
    So, if you want you family be harmonious, you should spend with relatives as much time as you can, in order to support them and to receive responsive feelings.

    1. "Prone" - is an adjective, not a verb; and to be prone to smth/doing smth. So it will be: "are prone to lacking...". And I'd recommend to check whether "responsive" can be used in such a way. As far as I remember, you usualy say so about people; but I might be wrong, so check it.)))

  3. In my opinion, it is very important for a family to have at least one meal without TV on, because it is a good chance for them to communicate, to share opinions and interests without being distracted! Nowadays people are lacking company of each other, especially it's children who are suffering from it. As their parents are buisy at work, and when they come back home, what they do micanically is - they turn on the TV! And sometimes this unconscientious want for communications becomes a breach in the relationships within the family! So, I can say that each family must have a little time spent with each other and talk just talk!
    I guess, when I have a family of my own I am going to make it a tradition because I think it is worth it!

  4. In my point of view, it is not really important. I can prove it from my experience.
    Well, sometimes I can't even meet my parents or brother at home, just because we have different timetables. It is real problem for us to get-together for a meal in weekdays. And it's not about TV or Internet, we just don't have enough time and everybody really tired and exhausted after workday. Nevertheless, it doesn't mean that we all concern only about ourselves. If we have time on the weekend or holiday, then we always hang out together.
    I guess that's the same situation in most families, at least families of my close friends have it.
