Mothers "under too much pressure"

The majority of mothers say that there is too much pressure to be the perfect parent, according to a new survey. As the BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk reports, a poll of 514 mothers, commissioned by contraceptive manufacturers Schering, found that nine in 10 felt under almost constant pressure. They blamed the media, government and even education campaigns by charities for the situation. However, despite the strain, 80 per cent said they were confident about the job they were doing.
