I would share my ebooks with my closest family members/friends if they read ebooks (which they don't). I would not expect them to delete their copies afterwards. Is it legally wrong? Of course. Is it morally wrong? Probably. But I'd still do it.
Morally wrong, I say no. I know the copies I give out will be deleted and not given out to anyone else.

I would say it's morally wrong if there's a chance copies will be made and given out to others that you didn't give them too or the person you gave a copy to keeps the eBook.
