What types of activities do families often do together?

Well, it really varies from one family to another, but from my perspective, relatives in China really enjoy having dinner together. It's a great chance to get together and talk and catch up with each other. We always say that a good meal brings people closer together. In addition, family members frequently go shopping together and buy clothes or groceries for each other. Some people enjoy watching TV, playing cards or mahjong. Some others prefer going for a stroll (= a walk). Now that people have more money than before, it's quite common to see whole families traveling together.

   Have there been any recent changes in the responsibilities of mothers and fathers？
   

I guess so. In the past, mothers used to stay at home to look after the child and take care of the household chores. But these days, mothers also have a job, just like their husband, so couples usually divide the responsibilities. Fathers often. cook and help with the housework, while women share the responsibility for making money for the family. I reckon it sounds fair for everyone.
Why should women stay at home to cook and take care of the children all the time?
