In the Ten Commandments, we are told to "honor thy father and mother." If the Blessed Virgin Mary had children other than our Lord, His taking her away from them would have made it impossible for them to keep this commandment.

What a stretch! Jesus did say she was being taken away from her children but that John was to look after her as his own mother and she was to consider John as a son. You are adding what is not stated again.

Jesus cannot do that (the underlined part) without sinning.

It is a sin for a Jew to invite, or permit, another Jew to ignore the commandments of God.

Unless, of course, there was no younger sibling in the first place.
