Two weeks ago I went to my cousin's house to sleep, so I left my Facebook account open at my laptop, so my mom went to my room, took my computer and read a conversation I have with a guy, she read all the conversation and in the chat we had sent some nude of us.
When I arrived home she was so angry, but she didn't tell me anything about, and when we were at the dinner she started shouting about the risk of know people by internet and she think someone want to abuse me or kidnap me, even she called Cibernetic Police. And she asked me if I was homo or something, but I answered that I'm not, but I'm abi actually. So she took my phone and I can't date with no one, I can't go to anywhere if she's not with me.
But she still angry, so...
What can I do to calm her? Because it's getting annoying.
And, should I say her that I'm bi? Or I should be quiet?

Come out to her.
Stay quiet and don't talk to her unless you need to.
Don't leave your Facebook open.

Just tell her that you know the person but don't do it in future because it's ilegal.

Exactly.

I don't know what the standards are where you live. At some point it becomes rude to go though someone else's private stuff but at what age you qualify for that kind of privacy is probably a cultural norm rather than an absolute.

I suspect she will calm down and I don't think she will be able to keep up shadowing you in the longer term. At some point she will have to start to let you have some freedom back.

I can't really say if he concerns are justified without knowing exactly what you shared but there are a couple of things to bear in mind: 1. Sharing some kind of images when you're under age will be illegal. The exact definition of what kind of image will depend on where you live. It is wise not to post things which may be embarrassing to the point that if you were much older and the photo concerned came to light, an employer would be wary.
