The status of Mary is a mystery that presents a difficulty to many. She is who she is ONLY because He is who He is.
If you are indeed a believer in Scripture then you have to acknowledge Mary's unique presence with Jesus at essentially every step of Jesus' life and ministry is indeed Scriptural. She was the first Christian, the first evangelist. She was present at the Annunciation and at the meeting with Elizabeth and the unborn John the Baptist. She was present at the birth, the flight to Egypt and the return to the Galilee. She raised Him. She found Him teaching in the Temple when He was 12 and feared lost. She was at His side when He performed the first miracle at Cana.
She is referenced throughout His ministry, at the Last Supper, at His trial and scourging. She accompanied Him through the stations of the Cross, was at His feet when He was crucified died and was buried. She was there at the Resurrection and the first Pentecost.
We Catholics believe Mary was assumed into heaven and has appeared to the faithful on numerous occasions. In this context to state that Mariology is unscriptural only because it conflicts with Protestant theology is to deny Scripture and the rich tapestry of the Gospel. She knew Him first and loved loved Him first with the completeness that only a mother could. She was chosen by God. I trust His judgment.
Peace be with you.
Catholics believe that because they are taught it, not because it is true.
