Provision certainly is a good thing, providing such provision includes
sharing and trading of what some would call duties.
In our family, no-one has 'duties', jobs are done when they are needed
to be done by whomever is in a position to do them.
My wife paints, washes cars, and mows lawn if it's required, I cook,
claen and iron, if it's required, and vce versa

Sounds like a good arrangement to me.
