Great post at Boston.com about a survey that indicates family dinners have a number of health benefits for teens:
"“It’s not the food at the table but the parent engagement that takes place during dinner when parents ask how a kid’s day was,” said Kathleen Ferrigno, director of marketing for the [National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University]. That daily conversational experience paves the way for communication when problems arise like pressure from a friend to smoke or drink."
