New research suggests that husbands do not do their fair share aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith work aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith the house. A study aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith the Ohio State University says that men who do an equal share aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith housework are a rare breed. Researchers looked aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith the lifestyles aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith 182 working couples who became first-time parents. Both partners worked roughly the same amount aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith hours in full-time jobs. The research team found that men did less housework aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith the baby was born, even though both mothers and fathers worked the same number aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith hours outside the home. During the first few weeks of parenthood, fathers did an average aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith five hours a week less housework, although they spent this time helping to look aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith the baby.

It is a different story aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith mothers. Becoming a parent added aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith 21 hours per week to the amount aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith work she did, even aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith her full-time job. Most of their extra work was spent looking aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith her baby. The researchers explained why new fathers did not keep up aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith the extra work after a child was born. They said that most men were simply unaware that the mother was doing so much more work. Another reason is that aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith a baby is born, fathers tend to follow what happened aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith their own homes when they were younger. They automatically accept and follow the 'traditional' roles aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith the mother looking after the baby and the father working, even though the mother is also working the same number aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith hours aboutafteraroundatforfrominofwith her job.
