Whether or not you feel this way, one shouldn't let your own personal moral values in the way when considering this PNM.
It's like the pregnant mother walking into the bar for a drink. You can take the "we reserve the right to refuse service" stance and deny this woman a drink but to do so because you feel that it's just not right is another story.
I know for a fact that my organization does not have any specific rules prohibiting mothers from joining. If a chapter wants to take a chance on a mother who really wants to join our sisterhood, I trust that they will do what's best. I know that I could not "strongly advise" against bidding someone who wants to join our sisterhood despite the time and financial commitments.
Like Alumiyum said, how she and her family handle their situation isn't really any of our business.
