Go ahead, feast with the fam!
Turkey day is here, ladies! And it turns out that the ever-popular day of thanks and feasting carries
along some added weight: the benefits of family
dinnertime.
Sure, family meals may seem like just yet
another one of those trivial traditions, but MSN New Zealand is
throwing out some new deets that say otherwise.
Apparently,
the nightly gathering does more than just the obvi in improving
parent-child relationships, it even encourages teen
wellbeing.
Makes sense, doesn't it? A better
relationship with your folks means a better, stress-free home
environment. Such a small concept goes a looong way, chicas. A
recent study shows that noshing with the fam can lead to less risky
decision making, less alcohol/drug use or abuse and fewer instances
of mental health issues. Now that’s something to be thankful for!
