I quite understand that wives have more stress because they have more responsibility at home. But why do husbands have pressure? Since women work longer hours, men have more responsibilities, and stress, at home. Men in their 40s are spending almost four more hours a week doing housework than they were two decades earlier. So both ***es are making sacrifice. Men are spending less time eating, sleeping and reading. Women have cut back on hobbies, visiting and grooming. I see. Though middle aged people do have problems concerning health and family, I bet they are brilliant at work. Yes. In many ways, workers in their 40s today have it great. They are healthier, better educated, and benefiting from a stronger job market than any previous generation. But the risks are rising along with the rewards. The spread of technology and American culture's infatuation with youth are creating a job market that increasingly rewards flexibility and speed over age.
