Division of Labor Problems
In many families, more and more men are expected and are even volunteering to help out with household chores. However, at holiday time, the division of labor seems to be women doing the cooking and cleaning while the men watch football on TV. This is, in part, due to Christmas being a time of great tradition—and tradition has women in the kitchen. To prevent the development of resentment, it is important that family members agree upon an equitable division of labor for the holidays with chores being spaced throughout the season so that no one will be subject to excessive fatigue. This division of labor, agreed upon and upheld by all parties involved, can greatly reduce resentment.
