Try getting a bigger bra or one with underwire. Or the next time you're shopping for bras or clothes or whatever just pick a cheap one up (it's more likely she'll let you get it if it's cheap) and say "can I get this one?"

My Cousin at one time was the Vice President of sales for a leading manufacturer of lady's wear. I have asked him in the past for help with these type of questions and his answer was that the first step in buying any bra is to be properly fitted. They have found that close to 90% of all women wear the wrong bra's because the have never been properly fitted. This is why most women complain about their bra's being uncomfortable.
It appears you are just starting into puberty and your breasts are growing. What you need is a properly fitted training bra and instructions how to increase the cup size as your breast grow.
Every manufacturer and major department store have fitters that can help you make the proper choice in which bra's to chose. Of course the manufacturers fitters are going to steer you to their products but you do not have to purchase their product once you know what to buy.
What I suggest is you or mom call a local department store such as Lord and Taylor, Macy's or JC Penny and find out when their bra fitter is going to be in the store and make an appointment to be fitted. You may have to be refitted as your breasts grow. This is good for you will be assured of a properly fitting bra that will give you the proper support and flatter your figure. Depending on your breast size you may never need a push up bra. Being a guy I've never worn a bra but I have been told push up bras can be very uncomfortable.

A cup is the smallest of cup sizes, so I wouldn't think that means that you need support.
However if you are starting to show and its obvious your breasts are growing, then it would be a good idea to get a bra, any kind really is fine. I am thinking more of the hiding of nipples so they dont show to tantalize boys and also as extra protection padding wise when the breast area is always so tender when girls are in the growth stage.
The purpose of a push up bra is to give better shape and make it appear that your breasts are bigger and fuller than they actually are.
Push up bra's accomplish this by stronger side panels that push any breast tissue in towards the center, underwires supports that help push breast upwards and pads that displace some of the breast from its normal position so that there is more of a cleavage showing. The kind of male attention such bra's attract is probably more than you are ready for at your age. Boys need no attention to notice girls chests.
If you are intending to wear any tops with a low enough neckline that make the cleavage obvious when wearing such a bra, I am sure any mom would not encourage that or feel comfortable with a daughter dressing that way. Not being disrespectful. Once you are older and you've experienced the kinds of attention guys will give no matter how little skin is showing anywhere, you'll see why moms will want to hold off that possibility happening as long as possible.
You did say you want 'support'. A push up bra is not necessary for just 'support'. The girls and older females with extra large cup sizes do not wear push up bra's. In fact the larger the breast, the less likelihood of finding a regular bra in the store that will support the heavier weight and they have to resort to ordering a bra on line especially constructed to support their weight. And let me tell you, at those sizes, bra's are no longer sexy and lacy looking. All they do is serve as function as support and look pretty ugly.
If you have no bra's at all and this is more about how to approach mom to get her to take you bra shopping, then remember, shes a girl and had to do this once upon a time. If you just want a prettier bra than mom might choose, then what you can say is that even though no one will see how your bra looks, it makes you feel prettier having it to wear.
It is a well known fact that how people feel about themselves can be boosted by what they wear...as long as they are not suffering from low self esteem. Good luck dear.
