In some cases, the woman’s salary is for family (7) and the father becomes the "househusband."

A trend that has emerged recently is the sharing of childcare (27) between husband and wife Young couples will try toarrange their work schedules so that they work opposite hours or shifts in order that one parent is always home with thechildren Since childcare is expensive, this saves money for the young couple trying to establish themselves and provide asecure environment for the family Husband and wife may also share household chores Some fathers are just as capable asmothers at cooking dinner, changing and bathing the baby, and doing the laundry
In some cases, the woman’s salary is for family (28) and the father becomes the "househusband." These cases are stillfairly rare One positive trend, however, is that fathers seem to be spending more time with their children In a recent survey,41% of the children sampled said they spend equal time with their mothers and fathers "This is one of our most significantcultural changes," says Dr Leon Hoffman, who co.directs the Parent Child Center at the New York Psychoanalytic Society
In practice, for over 30 years,
Hoffman has found "a very dramatic difference in the involvement of the father in everything from care.taking to generaldecision (29) around kids' lives."
Another factor has recently been added to the childcare formula The number of people who work from home nearlyfull.time rose 23% from the last decade The (30) of technology computers, faxes, teleconferencing has made it easierfor athome workers to be constantly in touch Will this new flexibility in the workforce bring a positive change for the (31) of children?
