(a)These lines are given within brackets because they reveal the inner thoughts of Amanda. Brackets are used for visual contrast between what Amanda is saying and what her mother is instructing.

(b) Amanda thinks so because now she is fed up of constant nagging and wants some space where she could do everything according to her own wish and there is no one to put restriction on her

hope this helps you
