I would recommend sitting down with your mom and having a talk with her. It seems she is scared that something could happen to you on the bike and is taking it out on you in an unhealthy way. Show her how you are being responsible by wearing gear and taking it slow as you are learning. Another way to show how serious you are about riding and maybe get rid of some of her fear is to take an MSF course and also pick up some books/videos on street riding techniques. Learn how to keep yourself out of harms way the best you can and hopefully she will back off. If not, then just let it go in one ear and out the other because you will always have someone telling you that riding is too dangerous and you will get killed.
