Is go a non-durative verb?

Answer

What does "non-durative" mean? You might be thinking about grammar too deeply. "Go" can almost always be used in continuous verb tenses.

Answer

The sentence is wrong. Firstly, mom is a "she". The sentence was written by a non-native.

As my mom was entering the kitchen, she dropped some coins.
As my mom was going into the kitchen, she dropped some coins.

It is not a good idea to use "go" in the durative sense, as it can be quite ambiguous.
