I think we'll at least see a conversation between Weiss and her mother. Aside from the story about her mother's descent into alcoholism, Weiss leaves out of her talk with Yang when referencing family near the end of their conversation in 5x08, so I think Weiss still very much loves and cares about her mother. When Weiss is eventually forced to confront her blood relatives (Jacques and Whitley in particular) during her subplot, I think her mother will be heavily involved with their family's domestic troubles. At the very least I would like to see Weiss confront her mother over her abandonment. It's not easy living with a husband who only wanted your money, but it's equally not easy to have a father who only uses you as a pawn in his schemes. Mama Schnee has a parental obligation to Weiss that she's neglected for almost 7 years, and I think that needs to be addressed for Weiss to find at least partial closure.
