My son (21) was complaining about the same thing and hates eating in front of other people. He can't stand his younger sister in the kitchen when he's preparing food either. He started a new job late last year that requires him to attend business lunches and his girlfriend has taken to inviting him to dinner with her parents. I've noticed he's got a bit more comfortable at the dinner table and doesn't grab his plate and race to room when a car comes up the driveway. I wondered if it was developmental thing. A new level of awareness of self and others as the self obsessed teen makes the transition into adulthood. Just a thought.
