Sometimes the son, after he grows up, continues to live at home with his mother. She cooks, she does the laundry, she cleans the house - and in many cases without asking anything in return. So her son, later thirty, forty, fifty or more years, continues to enjoy the service his mother give. He does not marry.
He is not ready to consider marrying.
He is a real Mambo (Mam= Mom, bo= live) - living with his Mom.
In the meantime Mom herself has usually become a widow, and the arrangement makes her feel important and needed.
I know some Mambos in Norway.....
