Based on your question, it would appear that the relationship began when you were both minors. Consequently I do not believe that this is the type of issue that would qualify as an age-inappropriate relationship. On the other hand, if your true issue involves the challenges you face dealing with your mother, then your options are to wait two months until your 18th birthday or consider filing a petition for emancipation.
