First you need to remember that the mothers never actually expected them to be adventures....This "revenge" is honestly disgusting especially when its revealed the mothers where neglectful shit parents themselves they knew there kids would be the hero party but taught them nothing about adventuring and how to survive despite them being S rank adventurers (the mothers)
like really how are you not going to teach your kids
As for the kids i feel bad for them they just turned 15 years old and immediately the goddess tells them they have to invade demon territory and slay the demon lord basically a death sentence since they where taught literally nothing since birth about how to do business manage diplomacy or even take care of themselves let alone how to fight
Its also pretty clear the mothers don't give a fuck about they're children and weather they live or die
Second you also need to remember that this is much more closer to the olden days where they were basically adults at this age.
Remember life was technically a lot simpler back then so being an adult and even being a parent was a lot simpler back then.....
You're trying to add some modern logic to what is basically a story based on an older time period.
The reason a lot of issues happen between younger people now than there was back then is because our world well it has way more opportunities is also much more complicated and difficult to navigate.
So it wasn't at the parents were neglectful but that things really were just different back then.....
Also, it was less that they weren't taught and more the fact that the main character is just so OP that he ended up making them look way better than they actually were......
He did all of the stuff for them and they ended up looking so much more competent than they actually were that their parents thought things were fine....
So technically it's actually the main character that's at fault..... He made them completely ill prepared but made them look so well put together that nobody actually thought they needed a help prepare them.

It should also be noted that while this is kind of based on the olden days some other things were twisted.
In the olden days the reason people wouldn't marry older women was because if the woman wasn't already married you'd think there was something wrong with them....
And men were only allowed to be married after they were able to take care of their family and all the women their own age would already have been married off....
Meaning men had no other option but to marry woman younger than them....
Only young men that were already well off would marry a woman closer to them in age.....
This kind of thing actually still happened not that long ago.
My own parents and grandparents went through stuff like this.
My dad was only allowed to look for a wife after he had enough money to take care of a family.
This was also the case for my grandparents.
On the other hand there was actually very little difficulty for a woman to get married.
They literally could get married whenever they wanted. And they could decide if they wanted to marry the husband or not.
There were cases where they couldn't pick... But that was often a more rare thing with either bad parents or you were in a bad circumstance and needed to get married off quickly.

My point is try not to judge things so quickly when it comes to older stories and things like this....
Honestly our modern society is actually the one that's weird and unnatural....
And it's only because of the fact that our world is more complicated that people aren't ready as sooner as they were back in the past....
Also because the past was tougher back then people were more mature at a younger age....
A 15-year-old back then would probably be more prepared for life than a 30-year-old nowadays....
And you need to remember that a lot of what we view as right and wrong was shaped to us by media which was given to us by rich people and what benefits them.... And while a lot of times it might look good and also might not be as great for us as we think it is.....
