Dining

• Leave the food you don't like on your plate.

• Play with your food.

• Complain about the food.

• Take more than one bite at a time.

• Fill your mouth before you talk.

• Leave food in your mouth when drinking.

• Table talk should be at maximum volume.

• Keep napkins off your lap. The best place is on the floor or sitting on it .

• If you are tired, rest your elbows or head on the table. That's what it's for.

• Stuff your face full of food before swallowing. Avoid unnecessary chewing.

• Keep your mouth open while chewing.

• Leave the table when you are done, and let someone else worry about your dishes.

Babies may have an excuse, but you don't!
