National Family Day!

Mark your calendars, the CASA National Family Day is coming soon. The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) has declared Monday, September 26, 2011 as a National Family Day - A day to eat dinner with your children. CASA has been conducting studies on the effects of eating meals together since 2003. Each report has concluded with generally the same findings - eating dinner with your children at a dinner table decreases risky childhood behavior (i.e. alcohol and drug experimentation). Below is a quick recap of some of the most recent findings in their September 2011 report.
