Listen "The 5 Mealtime Rules I DO Have"
Episode Synopsis
In this solo episode, Kiyah gets real about the five mealtime expectations she holds for her kids—not about what they eat, but how they show up at the table. From chewing with mouths closed (her #1 pet peeve!) to clearing the table when dinner’s done, she breaks down the small habits that teach big lessons in respect, responsibility, and being part of a family. It’s part rant, part reflection, and fully relatable for any parent trying to raise decent humans one meal at a time.** Free Resources **🥦 Guide to Picky Eating✅ Meal Planning Cheatsheet😋 50 Snack Ideas (for You AND Your Kids): ** Let's Connect! **📩 Read The Weekly Parent Newsletter📥 Subscribe to The Weekly Parent📷 Follow Kiyah on Instagram** Chapters**00:00 Setting the Stage for Family Meals02:46 Expectations for Mealtime Etiquette05:39 Teaching Table Manners and Responsibilities08:35 Encouraging Participation in Cleanup10:56 Reflections on Parenting and Mealtime Values**Keywords**family meals, table manners, parenting, expectations, mealtime etiquette, children, respect, responsibility, family dinner, parenting tips
