# 3985 No Kids First - Really!
Question
Our Rabonim where wondering, if one has to feed his small children before he feeds himself and this happens to be a Biblical mitzva, how come that whenever we make Kiddush or on every Seuda or meal the children are served last?
Are we not transgressing constantly on a Biblical mitzva and prohibition?
Answer
Horav Shlomo Miller Shlit’a explained that the time lapse at a Kiddush or Seuda between serving the kids first to eat or the grownups is so small and inconsequential, that other priorities such as honoring parents, Rabbis, or guest take priority.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller and Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu Shlit’a.
