Should I let my mother cat take her kitten outside to teach her?

Question

A few months ago I took in a stray cat. She often goes out. But she is also want to take away her two month old kitten out. She is trying to open door and want to go out with her kitten. Even though she often goes out from the roof side but she is instigating her kitten to come with her and is constantly howling. What should I do? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed

Let her take the kitten with her. She wants the kitten to come with her so she can teach it how to hunt, what to eat and what not, teach her what and who is dangerous, etc. This is important for the kitten. She will teach it to become a good cat able to take care of itself.
