Working mothers do an hour more per day than working fathers do and working mothers do on average an hour more per day with the kids than working fathers do.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you factor in not just who's doing what at home, but how much more time working fathers are spending on work outside the home, on average they spend two hours more per day outside the home.
Women work as much as men now, if not more. There's a resurgence of dads in the home and moms working.
I'm a better mother if I'm also doing my work. Some women find a lot more satisfaction from doing the hardest job, which is being a mom. But I like my day job, so I juggle a lot.
I'm not saying that men make better fathers than women do mothers.
The average full-time working male works more than a full-time working female.
I probably spend more time with my kids than the average stay-at-home mother.
Some women work while they are pregnant, but not me. That was a choice I had made. That's when I took a break. Men can work at whatever stage they are; whether they turn daddy, they still have their own thing. But women can't afford that because by being mothers, they have to be there for their kids.
Working moms, stay at home moms, they're both extremely hard jobs.
If both parents must work, I think it is more important that the mother has proximity to the child to therefore establish a childcare situation at the big corporations not once a day, but many times a day.
So, the total number of hours spent on the stuff you have to do to take care of a family, working and caring for stuff at home, the total number of hours is actually about the same for mothers and fathers.
