March 12 is National Working Moms Day, a chance to say, "You are appreciated," to the women who give their all on the job and at home. But I can’t help asking, are we fighting a losing battle when it comes to work-life balance?

Many moms are ditching their consuming full-time jobs for part-time and freelance gigs that they can work from home. And before you start rolling your eyes, we're not talking about signing up for sketchy multi-level marketing programs.

While no one can argue that being a mom in general is hard work, “the mommy wars” are a battle black women have chosen not to take on.

Would you prefer to bring home the bacon or fry it up in a pan?
