I don't know why some parents try to push their children certain ways, despite what their children say in protest.

Perhaps parents like these are stuck in a pattern of trying to correct mistakes that they made when they were children, and just can't seem to "snap out of it"?
Regardless of the reasoning, it is still painful I am sure. You do deserve to be treated much better by someone that loves you. I hope that you are some day able to see your mom snap out of this pattern that she's currently in!
Take care
