I wanted to have a successful career, have kids by now or in my late 20s.
It's easier for a stay at home mom if she has somewhere to go.
A stay at home mom is a housewife and homemaker. I know Latina immigrants when I was growing up and working moms of busy families went thru the times with their kids. In the end, they dump the kids out for other parents to parent. I was blocked from communication and ever developing mature "relationships."
It's like sucking love from older people as tho they're your parents and can't get it themselves, all of a sudden.
