I think the point about life insurance was that she could have killed herself and spared the daughter and let the life insurance cover all the cleanup of the financial mess.
But, the problem started when the dad died and he had no insurance. So I would assume that the mom didn't either. Maybe she had mortgage insurance, but I'm not sure if that covers a suicide or not.
