Well, DUH!!!

Most mothers don't get enough sleep

"Half of U.S. mothers are not getting enough sleep and they believe getting more rest would make them better parents, according to a U.S. study.

A nationwide survey of 500 mothers by research firm Braun Research found 54 percent of respondents said they were not getting enough sleep.

Full-time working mothers were suffering the most with 59 percent saying they were not getting enough sleep. Half of the working mothers said they were getting six or fewer hours sleep a night.

Stay-at-home moms fared better with 48 percent saying they were sleep deficient."

Exactly what I was about to say.

Although 99% of what is reported as news isn't. At least to anyone who thinks.

And this surprises us how?

Ah, science... painstakingly researching, verifying, reproducing and stating the obvious -- just be sure it truly *IS* the obvious :P

I have this vision in my head of the lead researcher discussing his/her important study at a family dinner, when ki's mother smacks the reset button on the back of their head, saying "Ya THINK?"
