Why does your mom call her a brat? Is she destructive? Does she bark a lot? A wise person once said (I don't remember who it was) that there are no bad dogs, just bad owners. While that may not be completely true it sounds like your pup hasn't had the training that will teach her how to live in your house. Your rules may be different than mine, but your pup can certainly learn the things that she needs to know to follow the rules at your house. At 2, she's certainly young enough to be trainable - try telling your mom you want to take her to obedience classes and that she will become a much better dog if she gives you a little more time. Granted, lessons cost money but hopefully a little initiative on your part will convince your mom to help you.

Hi!
I'm begging for a puppy right now, and I think I might be able to help you!
I just reccomended this to someone else too, so I really hope this works for you.
From what I've heard, Shih Tzus are lovely dogs, and I bet she's not bratty!
I don't know what is the problem with her, or why your mum thinks she's a brat, but whatever's the problem, I think that this book might be able to help you!
It's called 'The Perfect Puppy' and I've just ordered it off amazon. It got great reviews, and my friend said it really helped her (it must've worked because her dog is gorgeous!!). So read this, and it should have all the advice in it you need!
Good Luck!!

Hmmm.. should have seen this day coming.. When you don't train your dog, teach it right from wrong.. While you might tolerate the behaviour and think it's okay.. Others around you aren't going to be as tolerant of an out of control unruly dog..
Time to suck it up and train the dog.. Quit treating her like a spoiled little brat and train her to be a good dog.. You can't get immediate help, this mess is going to take time to fix.. Trainer is one way to get it done a little faster.. I suspect tho if you have allowed her to become this bad, and have done nothing with her in 2 years.. that you aren't a book candidate.. A trainer / classes is a better idea.. She likely isn't socialized at all either, so you can work on that too..

I love shih tzu's... how could a dog be a brat? it's the way the owner trains them and thats how they act. It's not the dogs fault.

2 years old is not a puppy, it is a DOG.
If your mum has made up her mind, there isn't much you can do about it. Maybe if you tried training her NOT to be bratty, and took responsibility for exercising her, and grooming her etc. your Mum wont feel so resentful towards either of you?

It's your mom's decision and you have no say. The only thing you can do it convince your mom that you are willing to step and be responsible for training your dog properly. That may mean taking her to obedience classes. If you're not willing to invest the time or effort why should you mom?
