▶ Your Answer : Family members see each other since they were born. However, as people go through different stages of life, family members start to leave one by one making a void sensation in the house. This can evoke loneliness in the house and cause problems such as ignoring family matters. People don’t have to think too hard on this problem because having meals with their families on a regular basis is the key solution to this problem. First, by having meals with their families on a regular basis, the family members can keep up with one another. When people sit around at a table having meals. the family members start discussing subjects such as the presidential election, getting a new job, or a new restaurant downtown. Just by talking about these matters, the family can regain a sense of unity and bond. Second, people won’t need to have fancy family reunions since having meals with their families on a regular basis itself is a form of family reunion. For example, I started to live by myself after I went to college and that left my parents alone. Consequently, I go to my parents’ place every Sunday and have a nice, warm meal. Currently, my family does not need to have any fancy reunion event because having meals together every Sunday itself is a form of family reunion. Thus, by having meals with the family on a regular basis, not only can family members keep up with one another, people will also not need to have fancy family reunions. In fact, sticking to the very basic family routines will be a step closer to changing social problems by helping people both physically and emotionally. |
