THREE in four people in Limerick say they spend less time together at the table than they did a decade ago.
The biggest barriers are a lack of time (52 per cent), the sheer overwhelm of weeknight chores (28 per cent), and children’s busy schedules (25 per cent).
Food brand HelloFresh joined forces with psychologist Allison Keating to highlight the significant, long-term benefits of adding just one more family dinner per week.
Ms Keating said: “Even one additional family meal each week can create a realistic and lasting change, fostering resilience, social skills, and parent–child connection that will benefit children well beyond the dinner table.”
