<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

Just a little bit of a backstory. My mom was born and raised in rural Poland and was brought up pretty conservative. She moved to Canada in the late 80's and raised us here with my dad. I moved out when I was nineteen, so I've been independent since.

I work in a tattoo and piercing studio and will soon start tattooing. Because of this, I've gained an interest in body mods including ear stretching (they don't go over 0g) and a few piercings. I'm also looking into getting visible tattoos in the near future. 

Despite being very supportive with my future career, she constantly berates me for the choices I've made in regards to my body modifications any chance she gets. This upsets me because it's a constant battle that hasn't progressed in five years and I believe it started when I cut the hair on the sides of my head short. I should also note that she tells me that she hates the clothes that wear. She beats down on my self confidence in order to get me back to how I used to look. We fight all the time and I feel like we're enemies.

She's controlling and trying to manipulate me into ditching my alternative style. I feel like I've tried everything to ignore and sway her, but she brings this subject yo non stop everytime I see her and it makes me furious to the point that it ruins our days together. My dad gets annoyed by it as well. She would be devastated by tattoos, but I'm not willing to give up my lifestyle to appease her. Has anyone experienced this? What can I do?
<bot>: My mom is very judgemental about my piercings and stretched lobes to the point that it's affecting our relationship negatively. What can I do?
