Work demands of duel-earner couples: Implications for parents' knowledge about children's daily lives in middle childhood

Article Abstract:

The idea that daily work stress causes parents to withdraw from family interaction was tested by considering parents' knowledge of their school-aged children's experiences, activities and whereabouts. Parents were found to be less knowledgeable if the fathers' jobs were highly demanding, if they had younger boys or were less happily married.
