Don't Talk While Eating, One Erroneous Rule Of Table Manners by iezeiyida(m): 6:57pm On Jan 17, 2022 |
Hello Nairalanders Vividly, do I remember when I was a kid of 7, and my parents straightly taught myself and my brothers table manners, one of which was not to talk while eating. One great Saturday morning, I was having a breakfast at the dinning with my tough dad and sweet mummy, 3 of my older brothers around and one of my bald-headed, genius uncle. Unexpectedly, I looked down and saw a spider approaching angrily towards the leg of my uncle but we were straightly instructed to sit comfortably, keep silent and don't talk while eating. As a meek child, I was afraid talking because I don't like being punished so the spider that seemed intentional reached its destination and kissed my uncle's big toe with a sharp sting and he cried out, loudly When I grew up, I realised I wasn't wrong. I don't blame my parents. Even a professor can make a mistake while teaching his students. But, I think the right thing I'll teach my kids by the grace of God is, 'don't talk unnecessarily while eating, not to not talk at all even when there's need to. So what's your opinion? I'm I still wrong with my childhood action engineered by fear of punishment? Or I'm right with my believe that people can talk while eating but not unnecessary, irrelevant talk to avoid, E Choke |
