an individual wants to remain in their wheelchiar instead of transferring to dining chair for meals

Improvement; There is no importance of sitting in a dining chair. If a Person who uses a wheelchair wishes to sit in their own wheelchair at a Dining table then there should be no problem. The person may feel a lot more comfortable in their own chair and not want the fuss of having to get out of the chair just to suit other people.

There is nothing wrong with sitting in a wheelchair while eating! I do and have done it all my life.

Individual want to remain in their wheelchair instead of transferring to a dining chair for meals?

Whats the problem with that? I sit at the dining table in my wheelchair whenever I eat. What's the point in transferring to an uncomfortable seat, sitting awkwardly through a meal just so I can look more uniform in a Dining chair? If the individual is an adult, who wants to sit in their wheelchair to eat then you really have no business telling them what they can and can't sit on.
