A new report has claimed that Chris Brown was thrown out of rehab in November for throwing a rock at his mom, Joyce Hawkins' car after she said something about his ex-girlfriend, Rihanna.

Hollywood Life noted that Brown and Hawkins were in a screaming match at his anger management facility, but when she said something hurtful about his past--he exploded!

"Nobody knows but Chris threw that rock at his mother that time because she called him a coward when he was yelling at her and she said, 'Is this what you do to women when you get mad? Stop that sh*t,'" a source said. "You know Joyce meant Rihanna when she said that but something inside her prevented her from saying her name."

The mother-and-son seemed to have moved past their differences and are working on their relationship.

"In his own way he apologized. He hugged his mother and he made her feel special. He still has problems admitting when he's wrong but he made her feel like he was sorry in his own way and that's all he can do," the source explains. "He's not going to change over night but he's working on it every day."

Brown has been through a rough year, but he has comes to terms with making his mom a top priority for his emotional recovery.

"He wants to get back to a place where there's unconditional love and trust," the source said. "He's trying hard to be a son and respect her and her authority as his mother. Once that barrier is broken and Chris realizes that his mother has love and his best interest at heart, they will have an incredible mother-son relationship."
