The
Role of Rituals
The family that eats together is a happier one,
say
researchers from a small Spanish study.
According to the study, adolescents with anxiety, depression, or other mental
health problems were more likely to come from families that didn't participate in family
rituals, such as sharing an evening meal.
Celebrating special events with extended family members was another ritual more
common among the mentally healthy, while the more troubled teenagers reported rarely
participating in family activities.
