Today parents spend little free time with their children. Why is it the case? Who are more affected: parents or children?

There is a controversial notion heating a debate over the fact that

parents

consume little leisure

time

for their toddlers currently.

This

essay is devoted to detecting the factors and how they impact toddlers. In

this

exorbitant society, adults are always concerned about financial burden so they try to optimize their

time

to earn a living, which can enhance their living standards. There is a myriad of adults having to deal with over workload at their company to have more money to afford all the family expenses

such

as tuition fees, living costs.

In addition

,

parents

being workaholics tend to bring their work home to complete it sooner so they will work during their spare

time

rather than playing with their kids. According to statistics from the Institute for Family and Gender Research, up to one-

third

of fathers say they spend less than an hour a day with their

children

and about 20% of fathers and 7% of mothers do not have

time

to spend with their

children

.

As a result

,

this

issue can break down the solidarity between

parents

and kids. The aforementioned issue can directly bring a disadvantageous impact on the behavioural problems of

children

.

Parents

are one of the most significant guides for them but they do not spend enough

time

teaching their kids.

That is

why

children

who lack parental attention will be very likely to take on bad habits

such

as being addicted to video games or using swear words. Undoubtedly. a child having more

time

with

parents

will know how to behave compared to a young person who rarely has to with adults.

Thus

, it is undeniable that

parents

play a paramount pivotal role in kids’ development. In conclusion,

parents

should have some tactics to balance

time

for work and their

children

to give the toddlers the best condition to grow up healthily.
