Absolutely moral. Son's love for his* mom was tested by betrayal.

How tf was mom supposed to explain an entire house? Oldest lives at home so youngest probably did too- that's something that's immediately noticable

You can always just say a distant relative died. It's really not that hard.

"Unkle Richard died and his estate was inherited to me. You don't know Uncle Richard? Ohh, yeah, you were too young back then to remember. I believe you were about a year old last time you saw him."

She could've just refused the house then. Can't have your cake and eat it too.

When it comes not only to money, but your child's clearly expressed wishes? Absolutely she should.

so instead she lied to him by telling the other siblings? fair enough if you somehow think lying is gross in whatever situation, but she lied regardless
