Fine China is by its very nature fragile and considering its greater expense in relation to less fancy, but more durable/utilitarian diningware, is more likely to be damaged/destroyed if used regularly.

And it’s not only the kids. There are plenty of klutzy adults and accidents do happen…especially over years and decades.

Nonsense. As others have pointed out, bone china and porcelain are actually LESS likely to chip than stoneware or pottery-type dishes. Take it from those of us who actually have it and use it.

Even my H, whose propensity to break glassware I have documented, has only managed to break one plate since 1983 when I met him.

The ability to sit down to a meal with people and converse, show an interest in each others’ lives and thoughts, is something I consider valuable. To each his own.
