Dinner for one, please!!!

I'm so over family dinner. Step kid A won't shut up about how popular she is over her brother, Step kid B. We're all happy you're so popular, but stop trying to lord it over your brother. He probably didn't hear it any way because he cannot chew his food unless his mouth is wide open. Step kid C can only smack every single bite. DH, well he just pretends it's all good. I guess it could be worse, I mean the house could have been on fire.... I know siblings fight but it gets so freaking old. I just want to eat in peace for once.

I like Foxie's suggestion but I would like to modify it a bit.

How about you and your H eat alone three nights a week. Like Tues, Thurs and Sat. Family dinners the other days.

This way you have some family time and some nights you get the peace and quiet you need while eating.

There is nothing more stressful than an unpleasant environment while you're eating.
