Further into the technological the age, the home has become the sight of work or toil again. Many of us bring our work home, on our screens. Parents and children alike can work late into the night as kids download their homework assignments from the school website and as parents field messages from around the world globalized around the clock workplaces. But this is little like the era when children would watch fascinated as a mother or father demonstrated some skill, whether caring for farm animals, repairing a plow on an engine, preparing a pie or a roast or turning a piece of fabric perfectly clean and crisp. Instead, the work that parents do at home on our laptops and our phones is hardly different than the schoolwork our children do and sometimes much less obviously rewarding.
