Answer:

No there was no contract, there was at best an agreement to agree (an agreement based on understanding that a future arrangement can be made).

Nina said she was still thinking about her son's proposal and had not decided yet, so there was no contract.

Oral contracts is a spoken agreement between two parties that may be legally binding.

Breach of oral contract can be hard to prove since it is not written down.

An oral agreement between family members is not enough to be considered a contract.
