Can *I* Please Be a Celebrity Mom?? PLEASE???

Nicole struggles with the solo act

The stress and obligations of motherhood are taking their toll on Nicole Richie. With her partner, Joel Madden, temporarily out of the picture, In Touch reports that the single parent routine is only making matters worse for “The Simple Life” star.
“Nicole adores her daughter more than anything in the world,” a friend told the magazine. “She’s just finding it a bit overwhelming being a mom 24/7.”
Nicole’s baby blues kicked in after Joel left home for a world tour with his band, Good Charlotte. “Nicole would be happier if he just focused on his clothing line,” another pal shared. “His music takes him away from her and it’s difficult for her to be watching the baby alone while he’s out touring.”
Adding to Nicole’s stress is her desire to be a hands-on mom to daughter Harlow and not just leave her with sitters. “Nicole doesn’t have a full-time nanny, so she’s watching the baby around the clock and it has taken a toll,” said the friend.

The italics are mine. COME ON!! Seriously! She's overwhelmed being a mom 24/7?? And she's watching the baby around the clock and it's taking a toll??? Welcome to motherhood Sweetheart!! If you don't like it--then don't have kids!!! Do celebrity's REALLY think they have it so hard?? What about the rest of us moms?? Those with more than 1 child, those of us that actually have to WORK? What about those of us who can't afford a nanny?? I'm seriously gagging right now at how pathetic celebrities really are.
