Cape Town - She is a fierce mama bear when it comes to her kids – and never afraid to speak out especially at online trolls.
Pink (39) was forced to defend her children yet again after some users took to criticising a photo she’d posted in which her two-year-old son, Jameson, was seen without a nappy on.
The photo shows the What About Us singer on a yacht with Jameson and her daughter, Willow (7), checking out a pelican.
But haters were quick to bring up the topic of circumcision, forcing the singer to delete the pic and put up a new one with the toddler’s genitalia scribbled over.
"There’s something seriously wrong with a lot of you out there," she captioned the photo. "Going off about my baby’s penis? About circumcision?? Are you for real? As any normal mother at the beach, I didn’t even notice he took off his swim diaper.
"I deleted [the original] because you’re all f–king disgusting. And now I’m turning off my comments and shaking my head at the state of social media and keyboard warriors. And the negativity that you bring to other people’s lives. There’s something seriously wrong with a lot of you out there. Smfh."
She ended by sarcastically adding: "Here’s a picture of the pelican we obviously caught and abused for hours before dangling baby penis in its face."

Pink, whose eighth album, Hurts 2B Human, is set to drop on 26 April, is no stranger to hitting back at online abusers, as is her husband Carey Hart.
Earlier this month she blasted an Instagram user who had something nasty to say when she posted a photo of a family dinner.
"At least twice a week on tour we shut the door to the outside world and have family dinner," she wrote, which prompted one user to quip: "Except it’s posted on ig."
She retorted: "Yes I like to promote healthy stuff. I also like to remind people to stop being TOTAL DOUCHE BAGS TOO. Consider this your reminder, f***ko."

Pink previously opened up to People about her parenting style in April 2018’s Beautiful Issue.
"The thing about parenting is you never know if anything you’re doing is working," she said. "That’s been the most humbling thing for me. In my head I sound amazing and then I turn around and her eyes are completely glazed over. I have no idea. We’ll see."
"I believe in affection," she added. "I believe in needs being met and faith being implemented, and I believe in letting your kids know they can count on you, and that you’ll be there.
"My parents obviously didn’t believe in that and I worked out okay. I always tell Willow, 'I’m going to teach you the rules so that you’ll know how and when to break them.'"
