well since i am not in your family, nor are many of the people on tama talk, there is really not much to say. reasoning is good though. and give your mum some time too, let her think it out (if you haven't already). Also, try not to push her, atleast thats the way it works in my house. but, as i said, i'm sure most of us on tama talk don't know much about your lifestyle and your mum. others may have ideas, though. good luck!
