The Family Contribution Calculator provides an accurate measurement of the daily contributions of each parent (partner) to their own well-being and that of their children – in other words, how they both meet the needs of every family member and contribute to a healthy, happy family. This is a valuable tool to cultivate resilience in your family.
It is based on the principle that there are several aspects to a healthy and well-balanced family life, which require dedicated work and growth for every member of a family (parents and children) to flourish. It consists of the following aspects (categories): Physical, Financial, Educational & Vocational, Logistical & Practical, Relational & Social, Mental & Emotional and Spiritual. All of the categories are equally important and holistically valuable to a family as they are the foundation and building blocks for a prosperous future. Therefore each aspect consists of ten questions about relevant responsibilities, duties and tasks to determine which parent takes care of what.
Apart from settling the age old argument about who does what and who works the hardest, the results of this questionnaire can serve as the ground work for several valuable and even life-altering resilience exercises, some of which are:
- Separated & divorced parents can apply this data to their mediation & negotiation process.
- Co-parents will find this an invaluable addition to the drafting of their parenting plan.
- Couples who are together & married can get an holistic understanding of the different aspects (categories) of a healthy and well-balanced family life.
- All parents (partners) can learn what constitutes each of these aspects and the best ways to serve their families in this regard.
- Families can use this for dividing responsibilities equally and planning & assigning necessary time and activity to each aspect, thereby creating an opportunity to obtain tools and skills to reach particular family goals successfully.
- Parents / partners / co-parents can learn how to formulate and communicate the need for more support from their partner while gaining appreciation and respect for each other’s effort and commitment.
- This tool can be a means to being acknowledged for what parents do and assigning realistic value to it.
- This information will encourage families to celebrate each member’s contributions and also learn how to support them in their different roles.
