When parents day need to be redefined

How can we be parents in the world of today? Let’s think about this. A stan­dard human has a 24h day. Let’s vote for an 8h of sleep; now comes the rest. Some parents sleep with their child, but some people can­not even sleep with someone else in the same bed. Any­way, so you have 16h of free time. How will you spend this time?

Look at these simple gra­phics. There is no rocket science behind that, just com­mon sense. Whe­ther you are in one of these situa­tions, the sys­tem drains your time and leave you almost nothing to deal with. Could it be a rea­son why some many new parents are ter­mi­na­ting there couple? To get some time back? This is a real puzzle and people are strug­gling trying to solve it the best they can.

Depen­ding on your situa­tion, you can spend it solo, with friends, with your close fami­ly or with your loved one. No mat­ter what you chose, the only recom­men­da­tion I could make is to bet on some balance. Now, think about it pret­ty well; eve­ry minute you dedi­cate to an acti­vi­ty is to be consi­de­red. Let’s take an example: Your dai­ly rou­tine may include some makeup and other hygiene acti­vi­ties. Where to you bill that? A default ans­wer would be in your solo time. Howe­ver, let’s split this solo part in minutes. A hair cut could be a friend acti­vi­ty. Mee­ting your friend at the bar­ber­shop could lead to a fun time. I’m sure the bar­ber would be plea­sed with this atmosphere.

Ano­ther example would be meals. I don’t have to explain, do I?
