Family life Sharing Family Responsibilities

Listen then answer the questions John and Caroline are husband and wife. They share family roles. This is what John says about what he does at home Part 1: Caroline and John are husband and wife. Although John has Got a job, he has a role to play in the upbringing of their three young children. He often gets up to see the children through the night and feels this has given him a closer relationship with them.” I am tired all the time” says John . I rock the children to sleep in my arms And once they have fallen asleep I put them into bed I don't mind getting up During the night But I find it hard to wake up for work the next morning. Part 2: Our social life has become less exciting since we have had our children but we tried to go out once a week without them. My relationship with my wife has changed too. Caroline: Children are very demanding and need a lot of care but it's all absolutely worth it.
