Good grief... I know how y'feel, Hon. Seriously.
I've been begging my parents to let me go to a convention for three years, and two years ago, I finally got my mom to let me go, since it'd only be held about a half an hour away from my home town, right?
Haha, but Fate is so, so cruel! The convention (Shimakon) was cancelled... and it was cancelled the following year, too, for the same reason. The hotel was still banged up and in the middle of construction after a major hurricane (Dolly) hit it.
The only deal with me is that my mom doesn't want me to go anywhere without a friend. I went to my first con last year with a few people that I introduced to her (they're my best friends, but I only see them ocne a month. DX!!).
But, I know how you feel. My mom's only half alright with me cosplaying and being into anime. I often hear her mumble to herself "at least it's not drugs/alcohol..." XD
Funny thing is that half of the cosplay events around this city lead us to the mall, and that's where my mom works. She doesn't want her coworker to find out that I'm "one of those people" who dress up when it's not Halloween, so I usually have to go home when everybody else goes... or change. Which ever.
Advice to you... I will say that you should find some sort of support to get her to let you go. Like, say that you're going with a friend or a bunch of friends that she knows are good people.
Also, if what you heard her say is true, then maybe you should explain to her that there's really nothing bad about being into cosplay. And, like with my mom, remind her that there are worse things, like drugs or something. In my position, my mom's only half-accepting, but yours sounds like she was like mine used to be.
Never hurts to try, yeah?
