‘I set the table every day’: The contribution of 10-year-olds to domestic tasks - 2024.
69
A large majority of 10-year-olds report providing regular or occasional help with domestic tasks. Some chores, such as setting and clearing the table, are children’s preserve. Children with two or more siblings participate more than only children. Boys and girls do not perform the same types or number of tasks, with girls doing more than boys. When the father performs a larger share of domestic tasks than the mother, the differences between boys and girls are smaller.
