Again, why did Mary have to become John's Mother
And John her son...
(Even though John already had a mother...)
Just so John could take her into his home?

Yep. John was charged with taking care of her.

John was agreeing to take the responsibility of Mary as his mother under the law.

It is a testimony to the love of Christ, but also fulfilling the Law to honor His parents by providing for Mary.
