There was this girl who I was friends with for five years, & we were in a really big fight last year over stupid things & we didn't talk for four (maybe five?) months. The thing is, this afternoon, we talked for the first time in a long time & she apologized. She really has changed. The thing is, two of my ex-best friends told me that she tried to get them to drink, & their mom told my mom. SO, my mom already doesn't like the girl, PLUS now she thinks she drinks. I know it's not true, cause the girls who told me that turned out to be liars. My mom still doesn't like her & doesn't want me hanging out with her. Everytime I try to talk to my mom about the conversation I had with her & how she apologized, she just changes the subject. How can I convince her that she's changed, so I can actually hang out with her? (link)

You 1st need to go back to the source. Those who started up that lie, are the ones that must fix it. Now, they made an innocent person look 100% guilty.
Confront them, let them know that it was wrong what they did, and let them imagine someone did the same to them. Let them know, that it can be done, from anyone who feels the need to start trouble.
Have them give your mom information on how that lie started, and they're reasons to why they did it.
Let your mom know that it was a lie, and tell her that you want to discuss this further. Most parents, leave to their last words, but everyone is privileged to their own voice. Find a way to get her to understand you and what you're intentions are.
Your feelings are on the line as well, because you can easily lose her as a friend, maybe even for good.
Push harder, make it a serious issue, if you want a chance to continue being her friend.
Hope everything goes well. Good Luck!
