hmm so are there really no options? I'm by no means a Mac expert so I am confused as to why everything from my mother in law is signed out except the photos

are you sure its her iCloud Photos? could be photos locally stored on the hard drive. try closing the photos app then hold down the option button and open it. it should ask you which photos album you want to open. it could be pointed to her old photos album

make sure under settings>appleid>iCloud that photos are turned on. also in the photos app, go to settings>iCloud and make sure iCloud Photos is checked. that should pull in any photos that are on your son's iCloud account.

once you have it straight you can delete her old photos album by clicking on the desktop then clicking Go in the menu bar. Click on Home then go to pictures in the finder window. you should see her old photo album there. delete it. you may have to do this step before it creates your son's iCloud photo album
