The rise of Dynamic Dads in Ireland – Division of family related tasks amongst
Modern Day Parents
Dads are taking a more hands-on and dynamic approach to childcare than
previous generations of fathers. A growing number of Dads are taking the lead
in Grocery Shopping, Cooking family meals and being the main carer of children.
But Dads in Ireland are still not great at sharing housework and tidying-up.
Headlines:

30% of Dads claim to be the main grocery shopper

While online grocery shopping remains limited,
Dads are more likely to shop online than Mums

25% of Dads claim to do most of the cooking at
home with 20% of Dads claiming they take it in turn to cook family meals

25% of fathers claim that housework is shared

30% of fathers who still have children living at home, say
that they are the main grocery shopper in their household, with just a small
minority of parents sharing the shopping equally.
Planning is prevalent – 67% view a shopping list as
important with surprisingly little variations between mothers and fathers in
this regard. However, mothers are more
likely to buy on impulse than fathers with 23% of mums doing so compared to
just 14% of dads.
Online shop remains limited – a mere 4% of parents are doing
all of their grocery shopping online with only 27% of families grocery
shopping online occasionally. Dads are more likely to shop online than mums as
they are less interested in being able to see or touch the grocery’s or
produce.

are still the main carers of their children with 59% of mums looking after
their children during the day compared to 12% of dads being the main child-carers.
A further 29% of dads state they share childcare responsibility equally during
the week.
77% of mums claim they are doing most of the tidying up
