Im sry. I cant really relate because as my t says, my folks are not "helicpter parents". I have grown up in a home situation where my parents dont care if I was playing outside until 10 at night. (im a sophmore in high school).

It is almost as if ur mother has a control issue. I am not sure what to tell you. i guess my only suggestion is to talk about it to another adult (teacher, t, etc). and maybe they can talk to your mom about it. she may see what she is doing, but she doesn't want to admit that you are right. its a wierd phenomenon... lol. sometimes parents wont listen until they hear it from another adult. And then finally they will listen, even if it was the exact same thing that you hav been saying the whole time. lol
