A question: Assuming the situation once again becomes favorable to males for marriage, would you ever consider marrying a widow who already had a child for the purpose of having additional children and raising the child, or if you can't have children for the purpose of raising her son as your own?
I have no interest in single mothers, but widows and their children are a case worth considering, even if to reject; so, I pose this question to you as well.

@Justicar @Stahesh @Zeb Thanks for your input everyone.
So far in my considerations, there is no tangible benefit to marrying a widow with a child over a single mother with a child since her female nature will treat both situations the same: a new provider with different genes than her offspring.
The society's strictures on property rights in the family would largely dictate how much control you'd have to raise the step child as well.

A widow may have been a good and faithful wife, who may have stayed with a husband even after an illness.
A single mother MAY have been a skank.
