Perhaps you had better explain why beginning a meal upon the sabbath by a brief catechism on why the sabbath is important, praising God using a Psalm and then giving thanks to God for his bountful goodness will ruin a perfectly good opportunity to talk about the things of God with one's family? Surely the very opposite is the case?
