Working parents are taking work home and not necessarily being compensated for it. The number of hours parents are spending on work is astronomical.

People don't like having to do tasks by themselves -- especially housework. Rather than doing chores separately, it can be a much more positive experience when families do them at the same time.

Our lives are busy, but we have to find time to enjoy our family's company and share experiences. When parents and children do things together, it can relieve stress.

Certainly, parents are very fortunate to be parents, to have children and to be employed. But we have to find a better way to make our lives balanced.

Work plays a significant role in the lives of working families, not only in the amount of time they spend at work but also with their attitudes toward work and how these attitudes and expectations spill over to the home, Overworking is very pervasive, but parents don't have the mechanisms to put the brakes on.
