Check the message from your mother tap on her name and look and make sure that Read Receipts in turned on here too. It could be overwriting your preference in the other Setting. That would control your Read receipt to her. Have her check on her device to see if it is turned for her. Try restarting the phones. Is your mother using an iPhone too? I'm not experiencing a problem, so I know it is not something that everyone is experiencing. You have the ability now to turn it on/off for individual people now, not a blanket setting for all.
