Tension with your parents is normal for a dude your age. You're in your teens now, and feeling a natural urge to assert some independence from your folks and stake out your own identity. Your mom might be fighting against this, or she might not even realize it's happening. Her "little boy" is growing up, and maybe she's not handling it well.
I think that simply understanding her perspective will help. She "bugs" you because she really loves you and wants you to be safe, happy, and successful. She is older, wiser, and doesn't want you to make mistakes that would harm yourself, such as hanging out with the wrong crowd, taking drugs, drinking, committing crimes, etc. Despite that, I totally GET that this seems annoying at times, and contradicts your efforts to assert your independence. These are critical times in your relationship with your parents. The next 5 or 6 years will set the tone for the rest of your life.
Try something like "Mom, I get that you're just trying to make sure I'm safe and responsible, and I love you for it. But you need to back off a little and let me PROVE to you, my own way, that I can be trusted to do the right thing. I promise that I won't let you down" Then give her a big hug and kiss.

You're growing up and starting your teenage years.
Has mom always bothered you this much?
She probably realizes that you will be needing her less but still wants to be in the know of what you're doing.
My son would tell me where he was going, what he was going to do and name a few of the friends that would be there. If they decided to go somewhere else, he would call and at least leave me a message, if I wasn't home saying where they were going.
You're probably starting to socialize a little more with friends so just keep her in the loop of who you are hanging out with. She probably knows most of your friends and shouldn't have a problem.
Just be honest about things and her trust in you will grow.
As a mom, It's sometimes a little hard to see your son grow up. Give her some time she'll get better at it.
Just remember she loves you and will always be there no matter what.

You are going through adolescence, a time when we are all "rude" to our parents.
There are real reasons for the often very "dramatic" change in behavior. And we parents have been there so we have some understanding.
However, it is not an excuse for bad manners. Have a little patience with her. She is used to a child that behaves much differently and she may be a bit confused herself on the change.
You are going to learn, in the next few years, a good deal of how NOT to behave.
And you will outgrow your behavior. Be patient and communicate.
Good luck.
Peace.

It's good that your making a move, it sounds like you want to change for the better and that's great.
When you start to get mad leave the room for a second try to think what your doing wrong, maybe there something behind this that started it all.
Just try to have a calm conversation try to figure it out, what made this happen? by just talking to your mom, I am sure she will think it's great you want to change things, try to do more with her, do little things like if the garbage needs taken out do it for her, I am sure she would love that.
Good luck, I hope everything goes well.

I agree with the first 2 answers. She's your mom. You may think that she's bothering you, but she's probably trying to be interested in your life. Be glad that you have a mom that cares. There are alot of kids who don't have that.

I felt like that too and once in a while I still get mad, but you have to just shut your mouth once in a while and agree with her. That will keep her from nagging you. She probably is fussing because she just want you to shut up and say ok mom I hear what you are saying.

the best thing to do is, if she makes u mad, run to your room, turn your music up, and then start punching your pillow or something lol. do it in private so u won't have to hurt her feelings in person. and maybe u should talk to her. she isn't gonna get mad at u because she's ur mom and she loves u and wants wats best for u

its a problem for all the teenagers.I know what you feel and why you get annoyed because she keeps giving you advices.But I want you to believe something that she always wants the best for you and if you get upset sometimes for what she tells you ,Just have your patient and try to think about what she says.You can never find someone who truely loves you like your mother!!!

try counting to ten and then remind yourself how she carried you in her belly for 9 months and went through agonizing pain to bring you into this world. Where is your father? Maybe that's who you are really angry with.
