You Know It Might Be an Unpleasant Family Home Evening When…
1. Everyone’s fighting and no one’s taken their seat yet.
2. Just as you begin the lesson, you glance at the clock and notice it’s nearly 10:30 p.m.
3. The homemade ice cream, that's been churning in the ice cream freezer for over 3 hours, still looks like vanilla soup.
4. The phone won't quit ringing, and you've taken it off the hook.
5. The opening prayer has just been said, and you still have no idea what the lesson should be about.
6. Instead of having a lesson, the family decides to hold family council to discuss all of the latest family problems.
7. Even after telling everyone you've got an important message regarding when the world will be coming to an end, no one will stop reading the newspaper, talking on the phone, sleeping on the couch or doing somersaults.
8. Just as you begin showing a church video, an electrical shortage hits.
9. The only food you can find in the house that remotely represents a treat is a package of saltine crackers.
10. You finally locate a set of scriptures to use for the lesson and discover during the lesson that it's an old copy of “Good News for Modern Man.”
