Family and free time

Free time

Women usually have to care about children and the oterh adults, so men may have more leisure time, and it is safe to assume that couples wiht children will have less leisure time than those without. Research has shown a clear negative link between the average weekly hours spent at work as working hours affected work life balance and the amount of time free for leisure activities. Other factors, such as religion and social context played a role in the time and money spent on participating in leisure acitivies and this contributed to the quality of free time.

Elderly people and free time

As you get older people seem to work less hours or even retire, as the daily lives of older adults consist primarily of leisure time, their quality of life can vary considerably depending on how they make use of their leisure time or how much money they have.
