 In American, although most men still do less housework than their wives, that gap has been halved since the 
1960s. Today, 41 per cent of couples say they share childcare equally, compared with 25 percent in 1985. 
Men's greater involvement at home is good for their relationships with their spouses, and also good for their 
children. Hands-on fathers make better parents than men who let their wives do all the nurturing and childcare. 
They raise sons who are more expressive and daughters who are more likely to do well in school - especially in 
math and science. 
 In 1900, life expectancy in the United States was 47 years, and only four per cent of the population was 65 
or older. Today, life expectancy is 76 years, and by 2025, it is estimated about 20 per cent of the U.S. 
population will be 65 or older. For the first time, a generation of adults must plan for the needs of both their 
parents and their children. Most Americans are responding with remarkable grace. One in four households 
gives the equivalent of a full day a week or more in unpaid care to an aging relative, and more than half say 
they expect to do so in the next 10 years. Older people are less likely to be impoverished or incapacitated by 
illness than in the past, and have more opportunity to develop a relationship with their grandchildren. 
 Even some of the choices that worry people the most are turning out to be manageable. Divorce rates are 
likely to remain high, and in many cases marital breakdown causes serious problems for both adults and kids. 
Yet when parents minimize conflict, family bonds can be maintained. And many families are doing this. More 
non-custodial parents are staying in touch with their children. Child-support receipts are rising. A lower 
proportion of children from divorced families are exhibiting problems than in earlier decades. And stepfamilies 
are learning to maximize children's access to supportive adults rather than cutting them off from one side of the 
family.
