Parents "are having difficulty balancing work and family responsibilities: 50%
of working mothers and 36% of working fathers report having difficulty managing their
family time."
In a decade, "parents in two-parent families with children under 18 have
increased their combined weeks of employment by an average of 5.7 weeks -- from 72.6
weeks a year in 1984, to 78.3 weeks in 1994."
