I have to agree with thefoundation here. Families not eating together was the single largest shock I've had when visiting other families. I also found it weird to find out that not everyone has to help with chores such as vacuum cleaning, laying the table or mowing the lawn (granted, it is hard to mow the lawn when you don't have one). Travel for me is mostly camping vacations. These only reinforced the notion that not everybody has to help with the chores (my sister and I always have to do the dishes when camping). Other kids also had more freedom. They were allowed to just roam the camping site while we had to report back every once in a while. Btw, I dual tagged it under #family, since it also seems appropriate here.
