The answer

A woman's repentance for disobeying her mother, if sincere, is accepted and erases what preceded it. Therefore, the disobedience of her children to her is not considered a punishment. Ibn Taymiyyah said: "The one who repents is not punished, neither in this world nor in the hereafter, neither by divine law nor by divine decree." It is obligatory to forbid children from disobeying their mother and to warn them of its consequences.
