time
spent by both parties when preparing beds.
It is clear that
the mothers spent 70% and 60% more
time
with their children, getting dressed and completing homework, respectively. Meanwhile, fathers only spent 30% of their
time
doing homework with their kids and 20% on dressing, nearly thrice less than women. It is noticeable from the chart that fathers took more hours playing games and preparing beds for the kids than mothers. Playing games and preparing for bed accounted for 70% and 50% of the Australian dads spent with their children, respectively.

, the percentage of
time
that the mom and her child spent playing was just higher than 20%.
In addition
