domestic division of labor

I filled out the chart more on, how it used to be in my house. Since my mother is going through cancer and all of her treatment, the roles have reversed tremendously with my father, brother, and I doing the household chores that the mother usually ends up doing.

I found it pretty amusing when I did the chart. Almost all of the work was done by the mother. With the laundry, dishes, cooking, and so forth. Basically all of the household chores/tasks are done by the mother unless she asks the father/spouse/children to do them. The lawn and outside chores/tasks are mostly done by the male in the house. The women really do have a "second shift", with her first job being going out and working/getting money and then coming home to her second job of taking care of her kids and home.
