Familie am Tisch

When food meets relationships. Food and relationships are both essential elements of life. The experiences that people have while sharing a meal stay with them for a lifetime. All the topics that arise and are discussed within a family come together at the dining table. Here, not only is food consumed, but also play, learning, work, experimentation, laughter, silence, and arguments take place. Christine Ordnung, a family therapist and close collaborator of Jesper Juul, along with journalist and father of seven Georg Cadeggianini, guide parents at the family table with this book: What potential lies in conflict? What helps everyone find their rightful place? Why are we rarely as subjected to learned patterns from our own childhood as we are in this setting? The book sharpens the focus on what truly matters – at the family table and beyond.
