Surprise! Mom Does More than Dad at Home

The Bureau of Labor Statistics says that married mothers with full time jobs are more likely to do housework and provide childcare on an average day than married fathers who also have a full time job. This doesn't really seem surprising, but what's up with that guys? The report also says married moms who are not employed spend an average of 3.6 hours per day on housework, compared with 2 hours for those with full-time jobs and 1 hour for those who worked part-time. It's a little weird that full time mothers do more housework than those working part-time. Do you divide the housework and childcare evenly in your household?
