My mom knows that I absolutely do not want kids. Like, the idea of being a parent makes me feel physically ill. She is still hoping that she'll get grandchildren. Last time she told me she's still hopeful that I'll change my mind, I got rude and told her to fuck off with that shit. I told her that she needs to keep that kind of thing to herself and that telling me that repeatedly feels very disrespectful.

That was about 6 months ago. She hasn't brought it up since. This branch of the family tree ends with me and that's totally fine imo. Everything has to end eventually. My mom's in total denial about that fact.
