try telling her that the reason she's paranoid about you and suspecting you of doing drugs and robbing stores which is odd, without any evidence whatsoever is because a) your sister, and b) maybe she watches too much biased news media shows about how kids are so far out of control these days. what she's accusing you of, if it truly is as you say only because you hang out late in a not too suspicious fashion in particular, is a regular example of an ageist stereotype. she thinks this is what teenagers do when they're out at night.
and yeah just tell her how you feel.

yea i know how that feels, my parents thought I was out drinking with friends because I came home late on weekends (past 12) but all they said was " if you're drinking just stay over at your friend's for the night and don't drive"

edit: im 16

Don't worry about it. Parents will get over it soon. You probably should just have a really long talk with her. That's about all you can do.

Or that's at least what I did to get my parents to stop worrying about me.

Outline what you do and all the goodness :D

Her accusations of your "drug use and store robbing" are based entirely on the fact that she's afraid of change and doesn't like her little boy going out at night.

She doesn't actually think you're on drugs, she's just resisting your changing (and maturing) life style choices and expressing it by ragging on you about what you're "probably" doing.

Communicate with her that's all I can really say. My mom suspected the same thing but we never talked about it and let's just say the situation got a whole lot worse :/

Are your friends remotely hoodlumish / suspiciously ugly / bad manner?
Does she know what type of people they are?

I would most likely inform her that if she wants to assume you are lying that is her problem and not yours, and that if she doesn't start being reasonable you *will* stop being honest with her.

It's those suspiciously ugly people you gotta watch out for. Ugly + suspicious. You know 'em when you see them.

i say just do your best to keep your mother happy. at some point in life you gotta start being the adult and gotta start understanding your parents like they understood you when you were just a kid and acted like a retard 24/7.

1. Don't over react to her suspicions. They are unjustified and may feel like she's accusing you but having outbursts just reminds her of that Oprah she saw on how drugs make your behavior erratic.

2. Treat her kindly. The hell is this, "she makes edible, not tastey meals". The fuck is that? She makes you meals, you're only allowed to have one opinion on that. Thankful. The hell was the point of this, eh?

3. Just be a good kid and stop being a dumbass. Don't get mad, just talk to her calmly. Say it's disturbing you why she'd think this, and why there isn't any trust there?

4. Do you do anything at all to warrant this? 11:30 is kinda late to stay out on a school night, regardless of being 17 or not. Especially if you live in a city. So she just wonders, "the hell is going on?" While your out working, or hanging out with your friends she's prolly watching Oprah, Dr. Phil, and occasionally Tyra if something is really interesting seeing how messed up some kids are and what kinda sex crazed drug induced parties they are throwing.

5. Nothing new. Summary. Honest, direct, manner, cool head, straight up, talk it out and better your relationship with her.

Angsty teenage mother fucker, tell me my meals are edible.

(I know you didn't tell her, it's not really a rant, I just got nothin' to do).

Just call in regularly when you are out so she can ease her mind, after a few times and she sees that you don't come back: in a body bag, with cops, high, drunk, etc. Your mom will begin to trust you more and more.

Unless your mom is one paranoid bitch in which case tell her to get off your nuts.
