The bar chart illustrates information on the time spent by children with their parents during the weekdays and weekends. Time spent is measured in hours. Children from ages 0 to 9 are grouped in one year intervals. At first glance, it is readily apparent that children spend majority of their weekdays with their mothers, whereas on the weekends they invest more time in the company of both mom and dad.
To begin with, children of all age groups from 0 to 9 are more with their mother on the weekdays spending around 6 hours together than compared to weekends where they only get 2 hours. Incase of dads, the hours spent together with their children drop even lower during the weekends. From 2 hours during weekdays to less than 1 hour on weekends.
On the other hand, both parents invest more hours in their children during weekends, spending almost 6 hours together. However, this number declines on weekdays to less than 3 hours. Lastly, the total hours children enjoy with their parents is slightly higher on the weekends than during the weekdays.
