You basically need to tell your mother that you're an adult, and even though that doesn't mean that you don't still need her, you don't need her like you did when you were 15. It is your life, not hers, and how would she like it if her mother went around telling her every little thing to do even though she's an adult? And what you do on a weekend is YOUR business, especially since you're legal and in college. You could be out doing nothing and not bettering yourself by being in school, but you aren't.

Luckily, I didn't go through this, and I'm so sorry you are! My parents actually lightented up a whole lot once I went to college this year, so. But I hope things get better!
