I second this comment.
Here's why:
Several of my friends here at UC Berkeley (I can think of 3 offhand) were raised in Mexico. They had no problem completing their education and making it into a great institution for their undergraduate degrees.
Whatever experiences your parents had in Mexico, you do not need to impose the same on your sister's family. With an American education, she can do better. She shouldn't think about moving, though, until she has secured employment and she is certain she can provide an adequate living experience for her child.
In 2015, they can come as a family to the US. It really honestly only makes sense.
If you folks really are stubborn about the not ever returning to Mexico thing (parents' last wishes or whatever the reasons), you should see if your sister's husband can legally immigrate to another country, like Canada, Chile, Italy, or Argentina. Then the two of them could move together to a totally new and different home for the interum.
