The bar chart illustrates the proportion of mothers, fathers and both parents together who spent helping their kids via different activities in Australia by 2013. In general, while mothers demonstrated higher levels of spending time for their children compared to fathers in dressing and homework, there was a reversal in the remaining works. Another slight observation was that the rate of fathers attended play with children in situations accounted for a little.
As previously indicated, in dressing, a significant 75% of mothers attended to play with their kids, whereas just over 20% of both parents doing that. Similarly, a comparable disparity was witnessed in favor of mothers in doing homework, which 55% compared to approximate 50%. Also, the percentage of fathers companied with their next of kin in these two activities was inconsiderable, with doing homework took up over 10%, five-fold in that of dressing. Most notably, dressing was the activity witnessing lots of biggest gap.
Regarding the two remaining works, both playing games and preparing for bed reported that almost came from both parents together, highlighting the dominance of them in these actions. Particularly, two activities displayed disparities in favor of both parents together, with 70% in playing games and over 50% in preparing for bed, compared to the figures for mothers around 25% and 40%. Specifically, there was a same percentage between them, at 5%.
