researchers found that fathers spent an average of 2.5 hours on a weekday and about 6 hours on a weekend day with their children. this included time spent playing together or doing schoolwork, personal care such as bathing and feeding. on weekdays, children spent one-third less time with their fathers than with their mothers, but on weekends the time gap closed and kids spent only 13% more time with their mothers than with their fathers. children of women who made more money spent more time with their fathers on weekends, however. “the good news is that as women become equal contributing partners, the relative involvement of fathers does increase,” one researcher said. “the bad news is … that men still do less on traditional women’s jobs — (taking care of) babies, dishes, etc.”
in other findings, fathers with some college education spent 17 more minutes per weekday with their children than dads without any college education. fathers who made more money spent less time with children on weekdays, but the amount of time was fairly small. “our findings suggest that although mothers still shoulder most parenting, fathers’ involvement relative to that of mothers appears to be on the increase,” the researchers conclude. “a ‘new father’ role is emerging on weekends in families.”
