I feel like he should have been an exception to their rules and allowed to see his mother and maybe even set her free so he wouldn't have felt guilty leaving her behind.
I completely agree with this. If he had been allowed to do that, or if Obi-Wan and/or the Jedi helped him to do that, Palpatine wouldn't have been able to manipulate his fear of losing someone else that he loved to turn him to the Dark Side of the Force.
