Jason, if I were in your shoes I might do the following:
Sit down with my mom, calmly and sincerely tell her that I love her and that I understand how hard it is for her to juggle work, drive me to and fro, and deal with all the millions of other things on her mind.
I would tell her that I want both of us to be happy - as happy as we can be, as often as possible, because life is short. I can't be happy if I don't follow my passion, mom, and if I approach jiu jitsu in halves, I won't make progress.
I have a wonderful mentor and friend, he's a man I look up to and his name is Scott. He'd like to meet you so you can feel what kind of person he is. He's one of the best grapplers in the world and he's offered to take me under his wing and even drive me home.
I hope that helps.
