She knows

I just hope communication stays as it is
With regard to my mom: She isn't a bad person or anything; I don't have much to complain about. She's just a bit... stuck. Sometimes she seems to forget I'm not 16 anymore, but maybe you're 16 as long a you live, according to your parents. I don't know

On the second part, thank you for that.
It was the only thing that came to mind when your mother said how to handle. So I had to say it.

Let's just say my mom is... way... off the mark

Here is a laugh for you on parents.
I still remember the first time, my now husband met my stepmother (or more precisely the woman married to my dad because she never was any kind of a mother to me). It was either our second or third date. We went to a restaurant after I got off work. First thing the waitress did was slam the water glasses down on the table. Then she glared while taking our order. I was so not wanting to acknowledge her. When we went to leave, she screamed across the restaurant, don't you two ever come back in here. We just looked at her like she had lost her mind. When the manager came running out, she asked why. The waitress said I was her stepdaughter and that she had every right to tell me what to do. The manager's response was you two are welcome in here anytime and you don't have to worry about getting her as a waitress again. She was fired on the spot.

I assume you *didn't* know your stepmother worked there? If I'd known, I would have never gone there in the first place. (Except if you wanted to specifically irritate her.)
