Why is it good to divide household work among all family members?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It makes the workload fair
Dividing household work prevents the entire burden from falling on one person, especially women. It promotes equality, cooperation and a sense of responsibility within the family. Option B is the opposite of this idea because shared work does not make household work only a woman's responsibility. Exam tip: Use terms such as “fair division of work” and “gender equality” in your answer.
