    Yesterday, I opened a newsletter from Eve Rodsky and The Fair Play Policy Institute that shared research findings that every husband and father should read. The University of Southern California found that parenting and home management imbalances contribute significantly to stress, depression, burnout, and lower relationship satisfaction among women. The study examined the division of cognitive and physical domestic tasks among mothers of young children and found the disparity in cognitive labor, which includes the mental and emotional planning of household tasks, is significantly more gendered than the physical execution of these tasks. According to The Fair Play Institute: "Mothers who take on a more disproportionate share of cognitive household labor report higher levels of depression, stress, relationship dissatisfaction, and burnout." ➡️ Mothers reported being responsible for 72.57% of all cognitive labor compared to their partners (27.43%). ➡️ Mothers reported being responsible for 63.64% of all physical domestic labor compared to their partners (36.36%). ➡️ Mothers who reported responsibility for more of the physical domestic labor reported worse relationship functioning. ➡️ Cognitive labor was significantly associated with all measures of mental health and well being (but physical labor—the execution of a task—was not) The best step forward for fathers and husbands is clear. We must assume that we have just as much responsibility in the home and as caregivers as our wives and that we know just as much about caregiving and parenting as our wives. Do not ask your wife how you can help. That's what employees do, and that's what our kids do. As equal partners and caregivers, we must assume it's up to us to talk with our wives about how to operate as a team. I share a few practical tips for how in our most recent post: https://lnkd.in/ez5ya6XN #marriage #parenting - Modern Husbands

    Magical Beings? Wie bitte??? Mein Mann hat bei uns zu Hause die „Fair Play“-Methode implementiert. Er ist einer dieser „aktiven Väter“...   Dank Eve Rodskys “Fair Play”-Konzept gelingt die Verteilung von Care-Arbeit und Mental Load *fast* wie von selbst – zumindest aber sehr kreativ und spielerisch. Frau muss sich an all dem Kram also nicht weiter alleine ab- und aufarbeiten (hallo, mentale Gesundheit!) - "Fair Play" macht einfach Spaß!   Von den 100 Karten ist diese hier fast meine liebste: „Magical Beings“. Was das bedeuten soll? Na, denkt mal an Osterhasen, Weihnachtsmann vs. Christkind und eben auch an die Zahnfee... Wer kümmert sich um den Zauber drumherum?   In unserem Fall: Mein Mann! (Kudos, Christian Stiefenhofer...) Ist das nicht zauberhaft???   Wer hält diese Karte bei Euch in der Partnerschaft? Und die vielen anderen tollen Karten des "Magic"-Sets? 😅 (Shout-Out an Katja von Glinowiecki und 🚀 Stephanie Höfer – coole Diskussion zu Katja Berlins Torte der Wahrheit und den "aktiven Vätern" da kürzlich... wer’s nachlesen will ▶ https://lnkd.in/gPMxppE4) The Fair Play Policy Institute Certified Fair Play Method Facilitator   #Future #Sustainability #Children #Life   👋 Ich bin Lena: Als Business und Life Coach habe ich mir zum Ziel gesetzt, ambitionierten Eltern zu einer gesunden Work-Life-Balance zu verhelfen.

    Thank you Julie Jargon and the The Wall Street Journal for discussing the much needed topic of #unpaidlabor and the #mentalload and the role of tech. The arricle states: The mental calculus takes a toll, especially on women. A study of mothers of young children, published last month in the Archives of Women’s Mental Health, found that an unequal division of labor for cognitive tasks hurts women more than unequally performing those tasks. Carrying the bulk of the mental load, the study found, was associated with depression and stress for women. “There’s now quantitative data that shows what I’ve been saying for 10 years, which is that anyone can buy mustard, but who’s the one noticing that the mustard is running low?” says Eve Rodsky, author of the book “Fair Play” and the developer of a game-based system for achieving domestic equality. She co-wrote the study of mothers, along with researchers at the University of Southern California. University of Southern California The Fair Play Policy Institute Hello Sunshine

    Family dynamics have a societal impact. 👏 👏👏 This subheadline is spot on 🎯 and acknowledges that if we want to talk about mental health and its impact at work, then we MUST talk about inequity in our homes. This article highlights the latest report from Darby Saxbe and Elizabeth Aviv from the University of Southern California in collaboration with the The Fair Play Policy Institute and Eve Rodsky ▶ An unequal division of household labor is a key driver of global gender inequity, suppressing women’s full participation in the paid workforce and significantly affecting women’s health and well-being. ▶ But it is isn't just about the execution of unpaid (and therefore often devalued) household and care labor... it's the cognitive labor (the thinking & the planning) that impacts women's wellbeing and mental health. ▶ As the article points out, it also pulls mental energy away from other priorities. Recently, we've been working with forward-thinking companies through our Fair Play at WRK program to address this exact issue. Naturally, we are partnering with the #Womensleadership programs to address inequity in the home as a missing piece of career trajectory AND(!) we are also partnering with organizations ready to bring this work to ALL employees. Work and home have always been intrinsically tied together, it's time to start talking about it and leveraging solutions like #FairPlay to narrow the #leadershipgap. https://lnkd.in/gHNyapvS #workingparents #caregiversatwork #workingmoms #workingdads #careoutloud #parentoutloud #bosslottery ~~~~~ 👋🏼 Hi, I'm Mary Beth, founder of WRK/360.

    Ferienplanung: Wessen Aufgabe ist das eigentlich??? Danke für Deinen inspirierenden Post zu diesem Thema, Jörg Stephan! Meine spielerische Antwort auf die Frage wäre, einfach die entsprechende "Fair Play"-Karte zu ziehen und die Aufgabe dann im "Fair Play"-Stil durchzudeklinieren. Eine Person übernimmt dabei die volle Verantwortung für die Aufgabe, bezieht jedoch zu Beginn aller Überlegungen den Partner / die Partnerin unbedingt mit ein! Da geht es um Fragen wie: - Was ist uns generell in unserer Urlaubsplanung wichtig? - Welche Regionen, welche Aktivitäten wären gut geeignet für uns als Familie? - Welche Daten passen? - Und mit welchem Verkehrsmittel wollen oder müssen wir reisen??? Die Umsetzung für die ganze Familie (also konkret: Buchungen etc.) übernimmt dann diejenige Person, die die Verantwortung für diese Karte trägt. So läuft die Ferienplanung wirklich stressfrei und auf Augenhöhe. Funktioniert übrigens auch für die Wochenend-Planung... Ich persönlich kann's nur von ganzem Herzen empfehlen!!! Du möchtest mehr über die Fair Play Methode erfahren? Dann sprich mich gerne an... oder lies meinen Longread zum Thema (verlinke ich im Kommentar). #Parenting #Life #GenderEquality 👋 Ich bin Lena: Als Business und Life Coach habe ich mir zum Ziel gesetzt, ambitionierten Eltern zu einer gesunden Work-Life-Balance und zu einer gleichberechtigten Partnerschaft zu verhelfen.

    I use data to create information and positively impact individuals, teams, organizations, and networks.

    I am a big fan of the work of Eve Rodsky and The Fair Play Policy Institute which aims to promote equity and reframe the value of unpaid time in the home organization. My latest Substack post with Christina Elson explores how household economics have evolved from previous generations and what young people expect from their future families. Surprisingly, about 50% of women and 45% of men indicate they would focus on unpaid work at home if the other partner’s compensation achieved their desired lifestyle. And, over a third of men said that working for pay is more of a woman’s responsibility. Read more at the below link and let us know what you think. Link: https://lnkd.in/e_5yyyu6

    Gleich zwei Vorträge über die Fair Play Methode habe ich im Juni gehalten! 🤗 ⚖   Immer wieder kam die Sprache dabei auf die Männer. Auf all die Väter, die es ja schon jetzt in so vielen Fällen unheimlich gut machen und ehrlich an einer gleichberechtigten Partnerschaft interessiert sind. Und die dabei ganz schön kämpfen müssen: gegen die Erwartungen, die historisch an Männer gestellt wurden. Und gegen die strengen geschlechtsspezifischen Beschränkungen, die wir Jungen und Männern als Gesellschaft ebenso wie als Individuen immer noch auferlegen. ➡ 👨 Das Stereotyp verlangt von einem Mann unter anderem, selbstständig zu sein, sich hart zu verhalten, auf eine spezifische Weise körperlich attraktiv zu sein und vielleicht auch Aggression zur Lösung von Konflikten einzusetzen. Unsere Männer stecken also in einer Box fest. Und in der ist es ganz schön eng und unbequem...   In 2017 haben Equimundo: Center for Masculinities and Social Justice und Axe / Unilever mit der „Man Box“ Studie dieses rigide Konstrukt kultureller Ideen über männliche Identität aufgedeckt – 2019 folgte eine weitere Studie über die wirtschaftlichen Kosten der „Man Box“, die allein für US, UK und Mexiko mit 20,9 Mrd. USD beziffert wird! Die Studien verlinke ich in den Kommentaren.   Derlei Überzeugungen und Erwartungen einer Gesellschaft ändern sich nur langsam. Selbst in der egalitärsten Beziehung ist es für Paare und Familien daher leicht, „aus Versehen“ immer wieder in die alten Geschlechterrollen zu schlüpfen.   Was, denkt Ihr, können wir tun, um Jungen und Männer darin zu unterstützen aus der „Man Box“ auszusteigen?   #FairPlay #Life #Gleichberechtigung #GenderEquality #PowerOfCoaching #LenaHoppeCoaching   PS: Fair Play ist eine geniale, spielerische Lösung für unser Vereinbarkeitsproblem zwischen Beruf und Familie – Fair Play ist ein Win-Win für beide Partner. Der New York Times Bestseller von Eve Rodsky basiert auf immens viel substanziellem Research – und dazu gibt es auch ein Kartenset aus 100 Spielkarten: eine für jede nur erdenkliche Aufgabe zu Hause. Bei uns hat übrigens mein Mann das Fair Play System nach Hause gebracht – und heute bin ich die erste Certified Fair Play Method Facilitatorin Deutschlands.
