Abstract
This study examines the conciliation of domestic activities and childcare of twelve couples in Montevideo, Uruguay when both members work and have an income. New negotiations in terms of relationship are observed when they work, perform domestic activities, and take care of children. To address this issue, the method consisted in the application of in-depth interviews with a random selection. Findings reveal that dual-career couples present a transitional model in the middle sector and an egalitarian one in the lower upper sector. The variables that impact the agreement of such activities inside their homes are school level, marital status, income, and fertility.
