Abstract
A sample of British parents of two-year-olds was asked about gender-related adult roles, beliefs about gender differences in children's behavior, and whether they perceived their own child in terms of gender-specific behaviors.

The parents were not positive about changes in the traditional gender-related work/child care division of labor.
