Thank you for the long comment. It is always great to get a little insight into other cultures. I have lived in the US since I was 15, but I was raised in Mexico. My opinion is only based on my experience. As I said, I love and praise my mom. I think she did the best she could for me and my brothers. Having kids, however, does give one a different outlook in life. I believe that nothing can take the place of a mom at home. And nothing can give families the stability that a providing dad gives. I believe a strong nuclear family is more important for the betterment of society than all the government intervention in the universe. There are no less important members in a family. Have a blessed life.
