You must tolerate and tolerate and keep on tolerating everything from you mother or father even if you feel that it is injustice done to you or others. You way we can annoy the feelings of our parents even if they are very bad persons like Kafirs as we read in Quran how we must deal nicely with Kafir parents (If your parents strive with you to worship with Me others, that of which you have no knowledge, then Do not obey them, but behave nicely with them in this world. ( Sura Luqman, verse 15).

Tolerate ill treatment from your mother or father for the sake of Allah and keep on seeking help from Allah to be a good son. Also pray to Allah to soften your mother's heart towards you and forgive her shortcomings.Quranic supplication says ( RABBANA EGGFIR LI WA LIWAAKIDAYYA WA LIL MO'MINEEN YAWMA YAQOOMUL HISAAB)(Sura Ebraheem, verse 41).

Wassalam.
