In this week's participation discussion, we talked about the division of duties in the household. My interviewee was a young man whose parents were still together; he'd grown up in a two parent household, with a man and a woman. He said that he remembered the housework being split up evenly between parents—for example, if the mom did dinner, the dad would do the dishes. His mother didn't have a job for most of it. He also said that the kids in his family would help pitch in as well, to split up the workload. Overall, he felt that his parents' relationship was pretty fair, in division of work.
