    This is explainable from a boy who does this…

    Common cold - I want to be allowed to rest and be taken care for(for example “I’m sick so can you cook me some soup and a sandwich for lunch?”).

    Life threatening illness - I don’t want to make the person worry about me. I don’t want them to force me to a hospital which I cant afford.

    You’re not going to worry or take me to the er for a cough but you would probably care for me and pamper me… That’s the difference

      No really don’t you dare take me to the hospital unless I’m dying and not even then unless I don’t have work in the morning.
