"One year we had three kids playing on three different travel baseball teams. I spent almost four hours in the car every Saturday... In marketing, this is called a captive audience. In parenting, it's called quality time. I learned so much about my kids that summer. Little things like what music they liked to big things like their views on abortion and the war in Iraq."Serving favorite foods for dinner also increases the chances that teens will stick around long enough to eat, or try hard to make it home in time. And consider letting them invite a friend. It not only makes "family dinner" more appealing, but helps parents get to know the kids their teens are hanging out with.
