The bar chart illustrates the percentage of time parents spent taking care of their children in the evening in 2022. It compares mothers, fathers, and both parents together across different activities.
Overall, mothers spent significantly more time caring for children alone than fathers, while fathers were more involved when both parents participated together. Additionally, joint activities accounted for a considerable proportion of time.
In terms of individual involvement, mothers consistently showed higher figures than fathers in all activities. For example, in playing games, mothers accounted for around 25%, whereas fathers spent only about 5%. By contrast, when both parents were involved, this figure rose sharply to approximately 70%, making it the highest percentage among all categories.
Overall, it is clear that while mothers were the primary caregivers, shared activities between both parents were also a prominent feature.
