This mother is using every type of emotional manipulation she can. From "you won't know if you don't try" to "you must want me to get sick and die." I know that it is prevalent, especially in certain parts of the world. However, everything she is saying and doing is emotional manipulation and emotional abuse. She is using all the same tricks that an abusive spouse or lover would, but doing it as a mother. The last line of "if you leave don't ever come back" is the worst one and it's something that is almost unforgivable. She is telling her son that if he doesn't go against his nature to do what she wants, then she can't love him and doesn't want him. Unforgivable coming from a parent!
