“This_time_with_children_pays_off,” Brandon says. He notes that good parentchild relationships result in children being happier and more successful, including at school.
As parents struggle to be more available to their kids, new research on work and family schedules to be presented Friday at the meeting in Dallas includes a study that shows parents' availability is on the decline because more parents are in the workforce. Although parents today may be spending more time on child care, they are less available overall.
Working parents who spend less time with their children should try to make sure the time they do spend is communicating with them vs doing the dishes or spending more time on themselves, Brandon says. “The tradeoff is not necessarily taking away time from your kid,” he says. “You're taking away time from other things.”
