    I think the man of the house should be served first, especially if he's the one providing. It's just a show of respect and gratitude.
    when I cooked I serve my wife first (when my kids were here, all grown now)

    The man was definitely served 1st, but we all ate together.

    As a married woman with a man the provides I would definitely say that the man should be served first and then the rest of the family but that we will all eat together. It's funny, my husband and I got into this debate a while ago and he said that a real man wouldn't want and shouldn't want to take food out of a childs mouth unless he provided it especially if there's not enough for the children of course my husband's from the old school. I agree with that too.

    That’s why I mentioned that in my initial post. If there isn’t enough food the man eats last that’s why we get the first plate.

    I'm not a lady, but from my personal perspective and the way I was raised, kids always get their food first. My mother was always the type of person to cook a nice meal, she would always fix her children a plate of food before anyone else. Of course, if you would go back for seconds, you will fix this yourself, but she would always fix her kids the first plate. I really believe this depends on how you were raised. Some people may have been raised to where the father gets the first plate, whereas others may have been raised where the kids get the first plate.

    Yes, absolutely. We would all eat together at the kitchen table as well. I guess the main difference was that children were served first in the house. Due to everyone being grown, some of which still live in the same house with parents, eating at the table with each other is rare. It's sad, but I guess that's how life goes.
