After the end of my 10 year relationship, I decided to try online dating 4 years ago (I was 34 years old then). I met an attractive woman with an 8 year old son online. We INSTANTLY hit it off. Today, we are married and our 2 month old daughter is asleep in my arms now as I type this message from my phone. By the way, my wife was a woman in her 30s who lived at home with her parents too.
At first, the living at home with her parents seemed "different" to me at our age. However, the alternative (at my age) would be to date a girl who just broke up with a guy that she had been living with. Parents house vs living with an ex? Yeah, I have a MUCH greater respect for the lady who stayed home (or on her own) until Mr Right showed up.
She probably lives at home because her parents help babysit. It's not wrong for someone to live at home, even in their 30s, depending on their circumstances.
Her living at home is probably convenient for her because she can probably get extra help with the child. Sometimes it's rough trying to juggle work and day care and she might get a certain level of support from her parents. It's not a bad thing for family to sorta pull together to help out with kids.... in fact, it's better than day care, in my most humble opinion.

Thanks for sharing. Sounds like it work out well for you.

Ok that makes sense. I will admit that I have never been in a relationship with a single mom before so am a little apprehensive about that but she seems like a nice lady.

Don't judge her circumstance,date her and get to know her. See how she interacts with the world.
