If you have kids 2-10yrs old, what time do you feed them in the evening?

Someone i follow on Instagram had posted a photo of her child eating dinner at 4:30pm… to me that seems really early?

Trying to figure out if i’m the odd one out here!

From age 2 - 5 I tried to feed them early as they got very hungry, like 5.30pm

From age 5, we always ate at 6pm

Now they are older (8+) it's anywhere in the range of 5.30pm to 6.30pm.

6-6:30 pm. Maybe a bit later at the weekend. DS is 3.5 and I can't wait until he's a bit older so we can eat dinner at a sane time again. We also both work full time, and I'd love to be able to cook more elaborate meals, but just don't have the time.

My Dad is one of the aforementioned southern Europeans so I'm used to eating much later.
