(That would be consistent with Killian's character where women are concerned). So having TL be Killian's Mom just doesn't make sense.

But I like the thought that they could bring some resolution to that. However, I would propose that what happened with Killian's mom is simple. My headcanon is that Killian's mom died during childbirth, leaving Brennon to raise 2 boys, something for which he wasn't equipped. Which is why he resorted to shady business, and ultimately sold the boys. And if you look at Brennon's second marriage, it has a similar story (Liam II"s mom dies when he is little).  And because of this type of resolution for Killian's mom, there is really no need to actually show his Mom, they could simply reveal this story in dialogue. Yeah, I don't know, it just feels lazy to just do that with Hook's mom. Hook is a main character, we should at least see something with his parents, even if it is seeing his mom die giving birth to him. But who knows, maybe they are saving her reveal for Season 7 or later. After all we didn't get Charming's dad or Rumple's mom til this season.
