The Parenting Report found that more mothers (61%) than fathers (42%) find it difficult to meet societal standards for good parenting.
The Mummy and Daddy report, published by Coyne Research on Wednesday, reveals the clear impact of parenting in Ireland.
Some of the key themes covered in the report include how parents perceive their own value and worth, how they think their family unit values them; More broadly, it includes how parents feel society values their role.
Apparently, only a minority of parents (4 percent) find it very easy to conform to society's perceptions and pressures to be good parents.
Almost two-thirds (65%) of parents say they have felt the financial strain of raising a child, citing a negative financial impact since becoming a parent.
More stark findings show that more than four in five parents (82 percent) spend less than 10 percent of their time each week on hobbies or past personal time, with parents It shows a recurring theme of not being able to find the time. For their own sake, for their role in raising children at home.
More than half (55%) of parents surveyed said their physical health had worsened since becoming parents.
Approximately 63 percent of these children were women, indicating that raising children places a disproportionate burden on mothers.
Of all those surveyed, only 15% said their physical health had improved.
The findings of this report are based on a survey of 1,000 mothers and fathers of children up to age 12, conducted by Coyne Research to better understand the financial, emotional and social impact of parenthood. Based on a research study.
The report will be launched at the Museum of Irish Literature (MoLi) on Wednesday.
