While, In the past, family used to eat meals together at home. now they eat most meals out our of home. However, I strongly believe that the family have to eat a meals at refular regular time together. This is because the family can maintain good relationship when they eat a meal together. Also, they can not have chances to interact with each other without these regular meeting.
First, the family can keep good relationship by eathing eating meals together. According to an old adage, people become familiar as they eat something together. In scientific perspectives, eating foods make people feel happy. Thus, families the family are needed to eat meals regularly together in order to maintain their relationship. For example, my country' ancestors ate meals with their families at the same time regardless of many number of members. From this tradition, I expect that they realized that eating foods together was beneficial for their families to become familiar. An article on a newspaper that I red read last month support this thinking by arguing that they regarded meals as an important way to firm their families' relationships.
Second, in modern society, since people are very busy, they can not have opportunities to interact with together regularly. Modern people spend most of their time studying or working out of home, so they tend to spend less time than the past with the families. Thus, they seem to need regular time to interact with families regularly and the regular meal can be the best way to meet together. Although people are busy because of their schedules, they eat meals without some exception, thus, they may set aside time for meals with families. To take my families example, my family was busy because all families were working before last year. Hence, whenever we went to home, we went straight to bed and did not talk much together. Naturally, our my family relationship had been exaggerated. Eventually, my father suggested that we all members of my family had regular meeting in restaurant. At first, I did not expect that we kept this appointment, but against my expectation, we had a meeting regularly and we could become familiar again. I think that my father' opinion was beneficial for us
