The roles in my family

The roles in any country are always influenced by the culture. When we talk about the roles of men and women, we thought that it refers to what is socially expected a woman or a man have to do.
Anyway our culture has changed and female and male roles have changed to.
For example, when my grandmother was young, she went to the school, but she didn’t study at university, instead of that, she learnt how to be a good seamstress. After that, she got married with my grandfather and she had to take care of the children while my grandfather took care of the work.
However, my grandmother bought her children (my mother, my aunt and my uncle) up in a different way in order to avoid the differences between men and women around the housework.
In my family the roles of the woman and man are of course different but if we refer to the work at home, all of us use to do the housework.
My parents and also my grandparents have always shared the housework and me and my brother have been raised in the same way.
I remember when I was a child, my father and my mother worked, so they do the housework just on the weekends. Both of my parents used to prepare the food or clean the house and when we were older, we used to share with them the housework, we had to help doing the hoovering or tidying the rooms, we also used to clean the dishes when we went to the house of our grandparents.
Nowadays, I live with my mom and me brother (who is 24) and the roles at home are always the same way. My mother works all the week so she pays someone to do the housework in that days, but in the weekends we have to take care of the house, the only different thing is that now we are at the university so sometimes we have less time to help in things like do the shopping, do the cleaning and so on. So, if some of us is busy studying or is doing a work, the other one prepares the food and do the cleaning. Sometimes, if both of us are busy and my mother is not at home, we stop studying and we do the cooking very fast in order not to waste many time. My brother loves cooking so he uses to do that part of the housework, I prefer lay the table or wash the dishes after the lunch, so we divide the work and this familiar system works very well.
