I just got a McBook Air. I signed in with my Apple ID but my mother is getting my messages and when she sends a messages it shows up in my inbox. How do I fix it so she doesn't get mine and I don't get hers?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Are you sharing the same Apple ID? Have you checked that you and your mother are using a different ID for Messages/FaceTime?
