them with all that they want and need. On the other hand, some children complain about their that parents spending less time with them.
A recent study revealed that parents today almost the same amount of time with their children as the parents of golden era of family togetherness. They nurture their children, look after them and try to provide them with all that they want and need. On the other hand, some children complain about their that parents spending less time with them.
However, some parents also feel that their life is rushed and they do not have enough time to spend with their kids. This might be due to the gap between their self-evaluation and the anticipation of intensive parenting in today™s era.

Mothers are more burdened as they spend large amount of time at workplace and then they have to run around the house to cook for the family and to fulfill children™s needs and demands. With such a lifestyle mothers are not accessible to children even when they are at home. Now if we look at children™s own schedule, we will find that children™s own lives have become way busier than ever.
Their studies have become extensive, they need to use online resources and engage in research. They need time to play sports, spend time with friends and keep themselves updated with growing needs of the times. Thus, children themselves do not have plenty of time to spend with their children. It seems that both factors as discussed above are responsible for lesser quality time with family. Yet, parents trying to fit in good jobs do feel the guilt of not tending to their children the way they would like.
