"My mom just told me to die over an email I misread. My mom is Indian, and she prioritizes academic achievements and results a lot. My brother and I are basically her one ticket to get respect from people who despise her. Whenever I get low exam grades, she lectures me about how she sacrificed everything to have me here, and I really wanted to tell her that marks aren't everything."
"One day, I made a mistake while reading an email from my school - I missed a sentence that caused a problem for me. My mom screamed at me and said, 'Why are you alive after I've suffered? You should die instead, so I won't have to handle you.' She accused me of talking back at her when I murmured, 'I've never prevented your image from being blown.' Luckily she she didn't hear what I said."
A child endures repeated physical beatings and verbal abuse from a mother who prioritizes academic results and social reputation over the child's well-being. The mother inflicts scars, berates low grades, and pressures the child to sacrifice sleep to meet expectations. A misread school email prompted the mother to tell the child to die. Another adult files a police report after years of manipulation, threats, insults, and isolation from loved ones, including a threat to expose the adult's address to dangerous acquaintances. The adult preserved screenshots and photos as evidence and feels relieved after reporting.
