My experience as well, kids are nicer to each other than we were in the 90s for sure.
Oh, that’s so nice. Is it maybe something our generation is doing right to these kids?
… Or is it just the effects of lead in the air going away?
What’s this rule that only 2 kids can sit with you. And that’s on a birthday. Best case scenario for non-birthdays is you sit with one other kid, but more likely it’s eating alone.
If parents can eat with you on your birthday, it’s probably elementary school, and the kids probably typically sit with their class. If a parent shows up for a birthday lunch, they probably sit them at a separate 4-top from the whole class, so they can pick 2 other students to sit with the kid and their parent.
In my kids elementary school, we just sat at the long table with the whole class, but I could imagine that scenario if the kid/parent sat at a different table. If you didn’t specify a couple of kids and left it as a free-for-all, there would be chaos.
