Modern dads are expected to repair toys, find batteries and teach kids to swim, while mums take care of shopping, washing and ironing, a study has found.
Researchers asked parents to list roles they believed was either theirs, or their partner's responsibility with dads' jobs' deemed to include dressing the children, playing outdoors, toy assembly and teaching them to ride their bikes. Mums' main roles meanwhile, emerged as mainly domestic chores such making packed lunches and dealing with school paperwork.
Simple solution? Tie a knot in it.
