Most stressful number for mom is three, according to a survey

from www.clickondetroit.com

When it comes to kids, three is the magic number... for stress.Mothers of three children stress more than moms of one or two, while mothers of four or more children actually report lower stress levels, according to an exclusive TODAYMoms.com survey of more than 7,000 U.S. mothers released Monday. Call it the Duggar effect: Once you get a certain critical mass of kids, life seems to get a bit easier.

On a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the most stressed, the average mom in our survey puts herself at 8.5. What’s stressing moms out? Plenty, from money worries to balancing the demands of work and home to feeling like her husband is sometimes just another big kid demanding attention. But the big secret of mom stress is that a lot of it comes from within: 75 percent of mothers said they stress more about the pressure they put on themselves to be “perfect” than they do the pressure or judgment they get from other moms.

P!nk writes letter to fans after tour cancellation backlash

P!nk isn't one to be bullied - not even by her own fans.  On Saturday, the singer posted a letter to Facebook, addressing fans in Birmingham, England, where she was forced to cancel a concert due to illness last month.  She said that she would not be able to reschedule the date because of "a logistical nightmare" that is out of her control. 

While she gave her sincere apologies, she added that some fans had been sending her hate mail and had a few words for those who expected perfection out of her.  P!nk wrote that she has never taken her fans for granted, and has an "incredible record" of pouring her heart out onstage and not relying on background dancers to do her job.  

She added that she can't help that her two-year-old who gets sick often, and that it "saddens" her that some fans didn't give her the benefit of the doubt.  The singer ended by saying that she shouldn't have to worry about fans who turn on her "like rabid dogs" and question the "moral fabric" of her character.  The letter was signed "Alecia," her birthname, "the human also known as P!nk."
