Proving that celebrity moms get mommy-shamed for almost everything they do, Pink was criticized Monday after sharing a photo cooking with her kids.
In the Instagram, the 37-year-old rocker wore her 7-month-old son Jameson in a baby carrier while she cooked at the stove. Her 6-year-old daughter Willow was perched on the counter next to the stove.
While some commended Pink on her ability to multitask, others were quick to chime in with their opinions: "Cute photo but please don't cook wearing the baby. I've read some really horrific stories about terrible accidents that have occurred doing this," wrote one person. Another said, "I babywear all the time except when I'm cooking hot meals. The better alternative, I suppose if you really must, would be wearing the baby on your back. Not directly facing the hot stove."

Not one to take anything lying down, Pink clapped back against the mommy shamers, writing in the comments that she was glad the majority of the commenters were supportive.
"I'm relieved that most of you see the ridiculousness of the comment situation," she wrote. "Lord help us all."
This isn't Pink's first time at the mommy-shamer rodeo. When the Grammy winner announced she was pregnant with Jameson, she posted a photo of herself in her kitchen on Instagram. "When microwaving your decaf coffee becomes an excuse to sit on the floor and rest for a while ..." she wrote in the caption in November 2016.

"Don't use microwaves! Bad for u!" one person wrote at the time. Another: "Please don't stand in front of microwave with baby belly."
Even then, she handled the situation with grace and humor, as only Pink could. She shared a Scary Mommy article about mommy shaming on Twitter and wrote "Enjoy over a cup of coffee." Later on, she shared another Tweet calling herself a "mommy shamer shamer."
