Yes, even if hand-raised they still have the instincts and breeding of wild animals. If they are trapped in captivity they will be miserable and agressive. Also consider the fact that they are incredibly hard to care for.

Is it cruel to keep a wild mouse?
This will depend upon your definition of cruel - if you provide adequate food, water, shelter and room to express normal behaviors, some will say this is not cruel. Others will disagree. A more practical point is keeping wild animals as pets isn't safe, for you or the animal. Domesticated animals (cats, dogs, ferrets, some rodents) have adapted to life with humans and get along pretty well. Wild animals fear humans and will typically react with either flight (trying to run away) or fight (trying to kill you). In either reaction, the animal or you may end up dead. Also, wild animals cannot be treated with the same medications and vaccines that domesticated animals can, and wild animals carry different diseases than domesticated animals. Illness can travel both ways between humans and animals, with devastating effects.
Why does My mum think that it is cruel to keep animals outside?
It depends on the animal. Guinea pigs, which I'm going to assume are the animals you're talking about considering that's the category we're in, are native to South America, and they are most comfortable in the mid to upper 60s (Fahrenheit). They are also prey animals, and wild animals such as coyotes, wolves, wild cats, hawks, and owls. Leaving them outside in cold or hot weather is extremely cruel as they are fairly helpless little animals, and they are vulnerable to predators when in an open area.
