The Mommy Wars<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the News<\/em>: For a second year in a row<\/a>, \u201cIn the News\u201d is celebrating Mother\u2019s Day early. The focus this time around is on \u201cworking\u201d mothers. Political analyst and Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen recently commented that Ann Romney, wife of Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney, had \u201cnever worked a day in her life\u201d and because the Romneys were financially secure,\u00a0 they did not have to \u201cdeal with the kinds of economic issues that a majority of the women in this country are facing\u201d today. Mrs. Romney defended her choice to stay at home and raise her five sons, which, she said, was hard work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
