I think it depends on the interaction of the parent/s rather than whether or not they are working (except where the hours are such that a parent is rarely home. For example: I worked outside of the home for several years after my kids were born , then took a break for several years and then returned to the paid workforce. I never paid for a tutor. When working or not , I read to my kids every single night. We were highly involved with our kids and promoting education and related activities regardless of work status.
