Answer 1

give it time you will go through stages

my mum and I classed so bad for quite a few years

but when I become a mum my self everything changed and she was my best friend again

remember just as much as you are changing your mum is too she is trying to adjust to have a daughter of a different age

be patient  

Answer 2

Your mom has what is called "old fashioned values" and this isn't such a bad thing. Today's kiddos think their parents don't know anything when, we've been there and done that. She may just want to teach you better morals and standards than a lot of the children today have. She may want to guide you into being the best, most trustworthy, reliable human being that there is and this is the only way she knows how. It is wonderful when a mother and daughter have this best friend relationship but not every family's dynamics are meant to be this way. Try to include your mom into the things you enjoy, try talking to her as though she were your friend and she may soften up even if it is only a little. Cherish both your parents for the unique individuals they are and for all they have done to make you into the wonderful person you are becoming. She does these things because she loves you.
