How do you feel about his participation in household chores?

Correct Answer

Tenzing's father's participation in household chores is a positive example of shared responsibility and gender equality in family life.

When Tenzing's mother became busy with her work at the cooperative, his father took on tasks like cleaning the house, taking care of the vegetable garden, and helping with cooking.

This shows that household work is not just a woman's responsibility but should be shared by all family members according to circumstances. It demonstrates flexibility, cooperation, and mutual support within the family.

Such participation sets a good example for children about equality and shared duties, and helps children learn that everyone should contribute to household work regardless of gender.
