阅读理解。 Austin Yowler,13,has football practice Tuesday through Thursday.His brother Kendall,8, has soccer practice Tuesday and Friday.Both boys play their games on weekends,which means calling time out for family dinners can be difficult for the Yowler family of Burlington. They try to squeeze them in two to three times a week. 'Today,everybody lives such busy lives,and dinner time is just a good time to catch up with what everybody's doing,' says the boys' father,David Yowler. 'It's really important,' his wife,Suzanne,says,'We always did it when I was a kid.You never know what kids might tell us. They are not very ready to give information at this age, so it's nice to get little interesting things once in a while.' Indeed,the family dinner might be more important than many people realize.'Surveys have found that the more often children have dinners with their parents,the less likely they are to smoke,drink or use drugs,and that parental engagement fostered around the dinner table is one of the most powerful tools to help parents raise healthy,drugfree children,' says a report. Austin Yowler,an eighthgrader,says,'it's nice to just sit down with everybody once in a while.' But he adds that in the evenings he doesn't have football,'I just like to go and hang out with my friends.Having to come home in the middle of that is just kind of...' His facial expression finishes the thought. It's the conversations happening at the table-not the food being eaten-that is key,the report says.Dinner time is the best time to strengthen family ties and learn what's going on in each other's lives. 'I know family dinners are important,so I tell everyone no texting,no TV and no video games,' says Deanna Eppers of Milford,whose three children are in college,high school and sixth grade.It's OK,though,for a mom to 'call' the kids to the table by texting a message.
