Even an adult mother and son? How about an adult daughter and father? What about adult brother and sister? And who cares if they decide to have children and inbreed. After all, it's their choice to who they marry, and how they express their love. Using your logic for homosexual marriage applies exactly to consensual incest with only the partners changed.
I don't see any problem with them getting married.
As for having kids, it leads to a slippery slope. I'd bet that heavy drinking during pregnancy is more likely to cause problems for a kid than brother sister incest. As far as I know drinking during pregnancy isn't illegal in the US. So the question is then do we allow people to do things that will likely result in birth defects? I wouldn't be opposed to this in general, but how far should it be applied? What about people who are both recessive carriers for genetic diseases? Do we only bar people from knowingly increasing the odds of defects? Why not mandate genetic tests to ensure there isn't an increase in odds?
