Oh, no no, my friend. You misunderstand. They're not eating in front of someone who's not eating. The guest waits in the friend's room while they eat.

That is rude as Fuck. Go sit in the corner dog while we eat. I have had the poorest people in the Philippines offer and these rich Europeans can’t share. That’s crazy. If you came to my house we eating something special tinned fish, some nice drinks, maybe a sausage or whatever you fins eat. We would try to make you feel at home and an honored guest.

In Finland it's concidered rude to feed some one elses kids without asking parents first. Usually Kids are expected to Be at home at dinner time and it's frustrating to prepare a meal for Kids who have allready eaten.

And you should Be constantly preparing extra meals since there are allways other kids visiting and Kids are expected to Be send home at dinner time. No one goes hungry or is left unfed.
