Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
I've found out when talking to parents, it helps so much to act mature. Don't get all whiney and say things like "I hate you, its not fair!" If you aren't a baby anymore, don't act like one. Just a heads up to help you out some.
Sit her down, ask her: "Mom, I'm almost 16. Why am I not allowed to have some fun with my friends during summer? I spend all school year working hard, I think I deserve some fun during my break."
If she says no still, ask her why. If her response is "Because I said so." Tell her you are trying to have a mature conversation with her about your life and an answer like that isn't helping.
You could even try to make a trade like if she lets you go out more you'll take on more house hold chores. That usually works with my mom.
If then she STILL says no, you can either go to your dad (if he's availible) or try some new things around the house. Paint your nails, redecorate your room, take up a new hobby etc.
Good Luck<3

umm well first i would talk to her i had this problem once and so i went to my mom. asked her why she was letting me. like a true answer not tha "cus i dont want you to" or "cus i said so" get a real answer.
find out her side and tell her yours.
until you guys reach a agreement start inviting people over and take advantage of the those one or two times a week.
hope i helped!

If she won't let you go out with friends, invite friends over for a change.
If she won't let you do that, sit her down, and explain to her all the reasons you think you should be able to hang out friends:
1.) Its summer, and sitting at home is boring and isn't productive.
2.) If you let me be with friends, I will follow all curfew rules you set in place.
3.) I'm almost 16; I'm a teenager- and teenagers have some of the best times of their lives being with friends- why would you [your mom] deny me of that?
4.) I'm old enough to know right from wrong. I won't get in any trouble, and if I do- you can set stricter rules.
5.) When you were my age, you probably hung out with friends during the summer. If you got to do it, I think I deserve to be able to as well.
