Today well take a look at the cha
24、nging role of fathers. In the 1050s and 1960s, most fathers went to work everyday and most mothers stay at home to take care of the children. However, since the late 60s and the early 70s, family life has been changing dramatically. Instead of accepting the rigid roles imposed by society, many coupl
25、es have been deciding to change their work-life balance.

28、s when Bobs role as a father changed. When Shirley went back to work, I had to change my role and start to do more cooking, driving the children here and there. When our children were growing up, I took a lot of interest in them, what they were doing.22I think in many ways, I was probably better pre
29、pared for the changing roles that I have had to take by my father. We did many things together, and I tried to get them involved in other areas that they seem to show interest in, such as theater or magic.He did a great deal more than I think many fathers, I mean, I can think of childhood friends wh

I think I had a role model.I remember David was interested in, he got very interested in magic and juggling, and he was an avid reader. As a young man, David loved magic. But he pursued a care
31、er as a biochemist. Before having children, David spent 40 hours per week studying cellular DNA in a research lab. 23And his wife Diane spent 40 hours a week working as a lawyer at Washington DC.After the girls were born, David and Diane both cut back on their hours in order to take care of their da
32、ughters. As a research scientist, Davids schedule was more flexible, so he took on more responsibility for the childrens day to day care. Well I have been able to adjust my schedule so that I can be home at 5 oclock for the kids and if the children are sick, be able to come home, take them to the do
33、ctors. We go for a walk, we take the dogs up the street, go to the park, hang out at the park. And then we head back to the house and begin preparing dinner.Since Bob retired 10 years ago, he has been enjoying his role as a grandfather. 24Hes been traveling with his wife Shirley and hes been playing
34、 tennis. Meanwhile David is just beginning his journey as a father in a new era.It can be difficult, especially when, you know, youre taking on new roles for the first time. And it can be, it can be disconcerting and it can be more comfortable to take on those traditional roles. I have, I think I ha
35、ve many more responsibilities than even most fathers do today, and certainly more I think than my father was raising his children. But the difference is not the sort of classical role reversal. Im not a stay-at-home dad. We have an excellent babysitter who has allowed us, allow both my wife and I th
36、e opportunity to continue pursuing our career.Well there are many differences in how David and Bob have raised their children, there are many important similarities.252627Language and culture 1To get is informal for to understand someone or something, for example, Do you get it?

41、s a question thats been argued about for a long time. Which is more important, your family environment or your genes?
