The chart below gives information about the amount of time children spend with their parents.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words.

Sample 1:

The stacked column charts highlight the data about how much time moms, dads and both spend on child-rearing during weekdays and weekends.  

Overall, it is evident that moms are responsible for childcare in more hours than dads throughout childhood on weekdays as well as weekends. Another interesting point is that at weekends, more hours are well allotted to family time with both parents' presence, and children from 4 to 5 tend to be with their dads more than other age brackets.

On weekdays, children devote a significant part of their day with moms rather than dads or both. To be more specific, children allocate a total of around 9 hours with their parents, which includes 5 to 6 hours with moms and 2 or less than 2 hours with dads (except for children from 4 to 5 who have a bit more than 2 hours with dads).  

Different patterns can be seen during weekends when children can spend up to slightly over 10 hours with their parents, an hour more compared to normal days of the week. Playtime with both moms and dads is extended remarkably to approximately 6 hours though alone time with dads is reduced to less than 1 hour (except for children from 4 to 5 who spend relatively more than 1 hour with their dads).

Sample 2:

The bar chart compares how much time children of multiple age groups spend with their parents, as displayed by the amounts of time that children spend with each parent alone and both parents together. 

In general, children of all age groups spend more time with their mother than their father alone throughout the week. On the weekends, children’s time with parents increases and this time is predominantly spent with both parents, rather than with each parent separately. 

For the weekdays, children typically spend around 7 hours with their mother alone. Infants, in particular, have almost 8 hours which strictly involve their mother, which is more or less the same amount of time for children in the 2-3 and 6-7 age group in this regard. The time spent exclusively with their father, on the other hand, is rather limited, which is at most above 2 hours for the 4-5 age group and at least 1 hour for the 2-3 age group. 

Regarding the weekends, the amount of time that children spend with both parents, which is no more than 2 hours during the weekdays, becomes roughly 5.5 hours on average on weekends. This is at the expense of the amount of time that is spent exclusively with mothers and fathers, lowering to an average of 3.8 hours and sub-1 hour respectively. Finally, children from the age of 2 to 7 spend an increased total of around 10 hours with their parents on weekends. 

Sample 3:

The given bar chart illustrates how much time children of five different age groups spend with their parents.

Overall, it is clear that children spend much more time with both parents on weekends while mothers tend to carve more time to take care of their offspring during weekdays. Additionally, fathers generally spend the least amount of time with their children.

During weekdays, the amount of time that babies aged from 0 to 1 year old spend with their dads is lowest, at 2 hours, while they spend most of their time with their moms (roughly 6 hours) and around 1 hour with both. Similar patterns are evident in the remaining age groups: around 1-2 hours are spent with the fathers, approximately 6 hours with the mothers and about 1.5-2 hours with both.

The child-rearing time at weekends follows a relatively different pattern. Across the age brackets, the dads still allocate the smallest amount of time for their kids (normally under 1 hour) whereas the mothers' time allocation ranges from 3 to 4 hours and both parents together set aside between 5 and 6 hours to care for their children.

Sample 4:

The stacked bar charts delineate how much time children of various age groups spend with their parents. The initial impression from the charts is that whilst children spend more time with both parents at weekends, mothers allocate more time for child-rearing during weekdays. It can also be seen across the two charts that fathers (excluding the ‘with both’ classification) generally spent the least time with their children.

During weekdays, babies aged from 0 to 1 year spent the least amount of time (2 hours) with the fathers, the most time with the mothers (roughly 5.8 hours), and around 1.2 hours with both. Similar pictures are evident in the remaining age groups; around 1.5-2 hours are spent with the fathers, approximately 6 hours with the mothers, and 1-2 hours with both.

A relatively different pattern could be observed regarding the child-rearing time at weekends. Across the age brackets, the fathers still set aside the least time with their kids (only a negligible 0.25-0.5 hours), mom’s time allocation is around 3-4 hours, and both parents together put from 5 to 6 hours into caring for child kids.
